National Natural Monument “Yamaguchi Genji firefly birthplace” 2024 05/07 Fastest firefly confirmed in history 05/21 419 animals confirmed 06/01 Peak forecast Firefly Festival held Best time to see from 8:30pm to 9:00pm 06/04 I went at 8 o'clock and there were about 30 to 40 fish within 5 meters. I was counting how many fish there were at a distance of about 100 meters between the bridges, and gave up counting when I got over 100. This is an unexpectedly high number for a city located just one minute away from the prefectural library.A neighbor told me that there were far more people this year than last year.

A clear stream that quietly flows through Yamaguchi City. The spring cherry blossoms and fireflies are famous, but the contrast with the summer sky was also nice. This area reminds me of Kamakura 😌

This is my favorite place to go to see the cherry blossoms every year. This year, the trees were in full bloom at the end of March, earlier than usual. It felt like the flowers were starting to fall, but the sight of the petals dancing in the wind was very elegant and had a different quality to them. I guess the large crowds are proof of its popularity. We look forward to working with you again in a year!
