[Sapporo, Hokkaido] A hidden gem!? Lavender at Horomitoge Pass

"Lavender at Horomitoge Pass?" Can you see lavender at Horomitoge Pass? I was skeptical, but it was an incredibly beautiful place with a panoramic view of Sapporo city over the lavender fields!! * * * * * * According to the man who was maintaining the parking lot, most of the people who come here are tourists. It seems that it is not well known among locals yet! Even I, who have lived here for 24 years, did not know about it. I looked it up and found out that it started around 1987, and the 120 lavender plants planted at that time have now grown to about 8,000 plants. It's a healing spot surrounded by the scent of lavender. It's recommended for a drive. Please come and visit. *The photo was taken in July 2023. 】▷Iwakei, Chuo-ku, Sapporo, Hokkaido⠀⠀⠀▷Early to late July (best time to see)⠀▷Parking available🚙(500 yen)⠀ ⠀＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝⠀#lavenderfield #hokkaido #sapporo #trip #summertrip #hokkaidotrip #domestictrip
