Lotus pond Lotus flo

Lotus pond Lotus flowers are abundant in the northwest part of the moat around Matsugasaki Park and Uesugi Shrine! I thought that lotuses bloom from mid-June to early August, but depending on the location and climate, they were in full bloom even in late August. I also thought that the best time to see lotus flowers was in the morning, but I was able to see many flowers even during the lunch hour. You can get quite close to see them. The address of Matsugasaki Park and Uesugi Shrine is Marunouchi 1-chome, Yonezawa City, Yamagata Prefecture. It is about 23 minutes from Minami Yonezawa Station and 27 minutes from Yonezawa Station. #Yamagata #Yonezawa #Summer trip #Hanami
