戸倉上山田温泉から歩いて20分で千曲川の側にこんなに綺麗なラベンダー畑があります。今日は子供達と自転車で行きました。ラベンダー狩りがじゆに出来るところです。ラベンダーはなんとなく信州の自然、この戸倉上山だの山と川の景色に合います。
In a spot along the Chikuma River about 20 minutes on foot from Togura Kamiyamada Onsen are these beautiful lavender fields. The kids and I rode our bicycles down to see them. The city lets people pick the lavender to decorate at their homes. The soft purple waves of lavender blooms somehow match the natural beauty of Nagano and the river and mountain setting of our onsen town.
