Soshigaya Park
Soshigaya Park is located in a quiet residential area of Setagaya Ward, Tokyo. The Sen River, which flows through the center of the park, divides the park into east and west. On the hillside of the Senkawa River's western side, there are spacious lawns and play areas, and the walking path that surrounds the lawn is often used as a running course.
The neighborhood around here feels really nice. Taking a stroll is so relaxing and healing.
Okegawa Benibana Field (safflower field)
Benibana, the city flower of Okegawa. The production of safflower in Okegawa started when Edo merchants brought the seeds to the city. Since then, Okegawa has prospered as a center of safflower production and an inn town on the Nakasendo highway.
A whole field of orange-red safflowers swaying in the breeze—such a summer vibe! It’s the perfect spot for photos during the blooming season, with the blue sky and green fields in the background making the colors pop. The atmosphere is super chill and it never feels too crowded when you walk around. There are also some small stalls nearby where you can grab a snack or pick up a souvenir.
The Cruise to an Uninhabited Island & Picnic Lunch
Seto Inland Sea has more than 700 islands, great and small, and they have many fascinating private beaches accessed only by a boat. Going under the Tatara Bridge, one of the big white bridges along the Shimanami Kaido, head for the virgin Tsuba Island. The beach has smooth sand and clear water.
I always come here to ride my bike along the Kaido route 🚲~ I really love this place!
