The Venus Line is a 78 km road that connects Chino City, Nagano Prefecture to the Utsukushigahara Plateau in Ueda City. 🚗
It runs through the plateau, so you can enjoy a cool drive during this time of summer!
When taking a break, we recommend stopping by the Drive Line to eat buttered potatoes and mushroom soup!

[Nagano Prefecture/Suwa City: Yellow flowers blooming in Kirigamine, which is cool even in summer, are called "Day Hemerocallis"]
#Travelwithme #Nagano #Kirigamine #Daylily #VenusHill #KurumayamaKata
Every year, 260,000 Daylilies bloom from late June to late July, creating a beautiful yellow carpet all around.
When I visited on 4/7/2024, there were still many buds, so I think they will be in full bloom next week or the week after.
Local volunteers have set up electric fences at the "KurumayamaKata Daylily Colony" and "VenusHill" to protect the flower buds from being eaten by Japanese deer.
In addition to the Daylilies, you can also enjoy a panoramic view of the vast mountains, forests, and other beautiful nature, and you can also enjoy walking along the trekking course to the Yashima Marshland 🥾
It can get a little cold even in midsummer, so I recommend bringing something to put on!
"Kurumayama Shoulder Day Hemerocallis Colony"
"Venus Hill"
📍7718-64 Shiga Kirigamine, Suwa City, Nagano Prefecture, 392-0012, Japan
Fee: Free
*There are several places where you can see Day Hemerocallis along the Venus Line, from Kurumayama Plateau to Fujimidai to Kurumayama Shoulder to Kirigamine to Yashimagahara Marshland, and among them, the best place to see them in full bloom is along the promenade from Kurumayama Shoulder to the top of Kurumayama, at Kurumayama Shoulder "Venus Hill".
