Tsuchiya Terraced Paddy Fields
Beautiful sunset over the Sea of Genkai. One of the 100 most scenic spots of terraced rice fields in Japan.
The Tsuchiya terraced rice paddies in Fukushima are reputed to be one of the most spectacular among the 100 best terraced rice paddies in Japan. The 400 terraced rice paddies, cultivated from the Meiji period to the early Showa period, stretch in a beautiful curve all the way to the coast. The evening view is especially beautiful during the rice planting season from late April to early May. The water in the terraced rice paddies reflects the setting sun, creating a dramatic scene of light and shadow. In summer, the contrast between the lush green of the rice plants and the blue of the sky and the sea is beautiful. In September, the "Tsuchiya Tanada Fire Festival" is held and 3,000 torches are lit along the footpaths between the terraced rice paddies. In 2012, it was recognized as a Japan Night View Heritage Site (lit-up night view heritage). To visit, use the parking lot (observation deck) by the prefectural road except during the "Tsuchiya Tanada no Hi Matsuri (Fire Festival of the Terraced Rice Paddies).
Not only peony and peony, but also other flowers in off-season
It is said that about 400 years ago, when the Hata clan, the lord of Kishidake Castle, which ruled this area, was defeated by the forces of Toyotomi Hideyoshi, a vassal moved the peony from Ming China, which the lord of the castle and his wife loved, out of the castle and planted it. The park was opened in honor of this anecdote. In the Japanese garden of the Chikusan-Rinsen-Kaiyu style, 2,000 peonies of 100 varieties and 30,000 peonies of 30 varieties from Japan and around the world are planted. It is the largest peony garden in Kyushu. The peony season is around mid-April, with early, mid, and late blooming in that order. The peony garden is at its best from early to mid-May. Although each of these gardens is open during the season, in fact, the off-season is not to be missed. Visitors can enjoy beautiful seasonal flowers such as plum blossoms, cherry blossoms, daffodils, and hydrangeas.

Iroha nihohe... a small island in the sea, just like a mini Kujuukushima
Iroha Island is the collective name for 48 uninhabited islands of various sizes in Imari Bay. It is said that Kobo Daishi named the islands after the 48 Iroha characters. It is said that Kobo Daishi threw his brush at the beauty of the blue sea and the green islands floating in it. It is part of the Genkai National Park. The Iroha Island Observatory is located along Prefectural Route 218, and there is also an observatory on a hill on Shimayama Island, the only island that can be crossed by a drawbridge.
