Not typical sunflower but pretty |
If you’ve gotta be away from simmering heat but still want
to have a summer memory, go to Sera Highland Farm to see sunflowers and have
their fabulous corns and watermelons.
There are a couple of interesting restaurants around there.
The one I tried is Oheso CafĂ©; the other I’m eager to try is Gomokumeshi. Both
use old houses refreshed for their new life. Oheso hosts woofers who spice the
place up. You need a car to go and move around there. Hop on a car and go. The
traffic is easy but you’ll need navigation or a good map.
Amazingly, there are some 30 species of sunflowers growing
on the farm. In total, one million sunflowers are planted. Let me pick up one of the uncommon.
The northern area of Hiroshima Prefecture is pastoral and
peaceful. Once in a while you could use cleansing of your mind and body by immersing
yourself there.
