Kesennuma City is located at the northeastern end of Miyagi Prefecture and is a port town facing off Sanriku which is also famous as a rias coast. It is the main fishing ground for saury and bonito and boasts the largest catch of shark fins in Japan, so the fishing industry is flourishing.

Akasaka Public Garden is known as a famous spot for hydrangeas in Kesennuma City. It is a garden where individuals have created and are growing hydrangeas. Originally Sugiyama was refurbished and the number of hydrangea was gradually increased, and now it has become a spot visited by many visitors.

Innumerable hydrangea blooms which is also a feature of the rainy season, and the slope is covered with countless hydrangeas. Also, you can see Kesennuma Bay from the upper part of the slope, and if on a clear day, you can enjoy the beautiful view woven by three blues: hydrangea, sea and sky.

You can enjoy the beautiful view of such hydrangea, but the admission is free. Anyone can appreciate this beautiful hydrangea. I’m a little surprised!

The blue, light blue, and purple hydrangea create a spectacle that is perfect for the rainy season. Hydrangea is beautiful on a sunny day, of course, but the appearance of being wet after a little light rain is also glossy and more beautiful.

It is a view from the upper part of the garden! The view looking up from the bottom is also good, but the view looking down from above also looks beautiful to enjoy different view. It was cloudy on this day, but I could see Kesennuma Bay.
