Mt. Omuro - Too Windy for the Lift



Next, we planned to take the lift to the top of Mt. Omura. People are not allowed to walk up.  When we arrived, we found out the lift was not running because it was too windy.



Maybe you can get an idea of the wind from my braid.



At the base of Mt. Omuro is Sakura no Sato Park where there are 40 types of cherry trees which bloom at different times.

Some of the trees had already bloomed and were now leafed out, some were in bloom, some hadn't even budded yet.  There were different color blooms and different shapes to the trees.









The park is a nice place for families and for people to walk their dogs.



 




I hope to go back and take the lift to the top, as well as visit this park again.

  1. With such a long season, there is likely to be a blossoming cherry tree waiting for you next time you visit.

  3. I also know Mt.Omuro.
    It's certainly a mountain where you can take a lift up mountain and walk around the former crater,right? I think it was unfortunate that the wind was strong this time.
    I hope you have another chance.

  4. Shame the lift didn't run, but the sakura are very pretty! The area looks very dry though, is it always like this or just hasn't rained in a while?
