Today’s Japanese word is “Tsuyu” (rainy season).
In most of Japan, the rainy season lasts from early June to mid-July.
It starts from Okinawa. But Hokkaido is largely unaffected.
In these season, we generally avoid traveling outside.
But some tourist spots are wrapped in the rain and fog, it is very beautiful.
Especially the moss is also rather lush at this time.
The popular spot of the moss is “Saihoji Temple”.
It is called “Koke-dera” (the moss temple), it is a famous temple in the moss.
In addition, there are the flowers of “Ajisai” (hydrangea) begins to bloom beautiful.
