Monday, August 19, 2024

On Friday, August 16th, Himawari no Sato will be packed with events to mark the end of the Sunflower Festival, including the Hokuryu Bon Odori Festival, projection mapping, and fireworks display in the evening!

These magnificent sunflowers fulfill their divine mission while desperately enduring the weight of so many seeds in order to nurture and protect the precious mature seeds!!!

It's a wonderful sight to see voices of gratitude and excitement echoing throughout Himawari Village, saying, "Thank you for all the moving experiences!"

Himawari lifts her head heavily

As if fulfilling a divine mission...

With gratitude for the gentle sunset that envelops me...
