Iris Field — Attraction in Ogimi

This attraction I make a visit to every year, once I hear full bloom season has arrived. This year was probably the best I have experienced. The fields were fairly easy to navigate, not, soaking wet and slippery and, full of bright purple flowers. It wasn't crowded with tourists and, as always, cut flowers were available at extremely decent, low prices. The season began 10 days early, this year and flowers should be decent for viewing and photography for another week or so. An update for 2022 - Flowers should be in full bloom...

While exploring the north, swing by and see the large iris fields. Be careful not to step to close, the water is deeper than it looks! If taking photos please don't tramble the flowers. It was great to wake through and smell the flowers. There are also other flowers growing.

Free parking on site. No vending machines or bathrooms. There are iris for sale...

We went the second week in April and there were still tons of blooms. Everyone working in the tents selling the Iris bouquets were very friendly even with our limited Japanese. There are several fiields to walk through so it's not that crowded and of course it...
