[Okayama Prefecture] Picking lavender at Hiruzen Herb Garden

I found a wonderful place in Okayama Prefecture, so I'd like to introduce it to you. Here you can find one of the largest lavender fields in western Japan and a herb garden where herbs are in full bloom, and you can even pick the lavender when it's in full bloom💐✨ There is also a cafe and shop on-site, so it's perfect for a break from sightseeing in Okayama. The best time to see the lavender is from early July to early August, but you can also see hydrangeas in June. It is closed during the off-season and is only open for a limited time, but it is a place where you can feel the fullness of nature, so if you are in the area or traveling to Okayama, be sure to stop by!! ! Admission fees are reasonable and free for elementary school children and younger, so it's also attractive that you can drop in casually♪ 📍Hiruzen Herb Garden 1480-64 Hiruzen Nishikayabe, Maniwa City, Okayama Prefecture, 717-0604 *Closed from December to March Opening hours Weekdays from April to November 9:30 to 16:30 Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays 9:00 to 17:00 Opening hours change depending on the season 💴Admission fee 300 yen for adults, 200 yen for junior and senior high school students, free for elementary school children and younger Public transportation: JR Chugoku Katsuyama Station → 1 hour by car Car: 5 minutes from Hiruzen IC on the Yonago Expressway #trip202304 #lavender field #lavender #Okayama Prefecture #Okayama trip #recommended outing spots for children
