𝐓𝐫𝐢𝐩*⋆✈Saga𓂃 𓈒𓏸Genkai Town Rice terraces of Hamanoura We stopped off on the way from Yobuko Town to Arita City Rice terraces of Hamanoura, which has been selected as one of the 100 best rice terraces in Japan The 283 rice fields, large and small, piled up one on top of the other, look like a staircase running up from the coast The size and shape of the rice terraces have been shaped to match the terrain, following the natural curves. This is a scene that has continued since rice cultivation began in Japan, but it is now a precious sight. Rice harvesting has started here and there, and I was wondering if this year's new rice will be ready soon~ I was looking at it while thinking (more rice than flowers) When the rice fields are filled with water in early spring, the sunset sinking into the horizon colors the water surface and rice fields orange, creating a fantastic scene By the way, it seems that Koshihikari rice is mainly grown here. I didn't have much of an image of rice in Kyushu, but I was surprised to see that Saga has a surprisingly large number of rice terraces🌾 I recommend taking photos from the top of an observation deck to get a good balance of the subject, rice terraces, sea, and sky◎ 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 ︎𓊆𝐴𝑐𝑐𝑒𝑠𝑠𓊇 From the Genkai Town website 348 Moroura, Genkai Town, Higashimatsuura District, Saga Prefecture 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 𓐄 #girlstrip #sagatrip #trip #riceterrace #saga #sagatourism #greatviewsofjapan #Domestic travel #Kyushu travel
