There are 20,000 plum trees planted on the mountain. Unfortunately the blossoms are too early at the best today. White plums will blossom in next week or later.
Himeji is seen over hazy sky....
Feeling a early spring...
These rocks on the right side is an ancient tomb. There are 16 small tombs on the Aayabe-yama. They were build about 1,500 years ago.
BTW, those plum fruits are picked by local grannies in the summer. I can imagine it is so hard job on steep sloope...
Using National Route2 is easier and toll free, but I really hate local rough drivers among Shima section in Himeji City, Sanyo toll expressway is better than feeling stress.
beautiful plum trees.. your photos make me want to go there as well..
