Saturday in colors at Michinoku Park

Japan is currently enjoying the Golden Week, which will end tomorrow, and I am one of those who luckily have the luxury to enjoy it. My Golden Week this year is quite different with my previous ones as I spent some quality time with my friend Mi-chan instead of my husband. I know that she loves taking pictures, so I asked her if she would join me visiting Michinoku Park where the tulip flowers are fully blooming. I was really glad when she said "Let`s go!" and today we finally made the trip.

As usual, I don`t really have the explanation about the flowers or the pictures, but I`m really keen on sharing the colors with you.

Here is what welcomed us when we entered the park:


The flowers:

And the visitors:

To Mi-chan, thanks for this wonderful trip and being super patient with me!

    1. Hello, Nami-san! Thanks a lot for the appreciation! But if you were at that park, I`m sure you would take the pictures a thousand times better than I did :))

  2. Hi Arudhi, those are some breathtaking photos - that park, with the mountains in the background, and thousands and thousands of tulips... beautiful! I love tulips so much, I have a big vase on my table in my living room right now - rich yellow and deep purple ones.

    I've never seen the red and white ones in the photo above - those are especially beautiful. Thanks for sharing the photos of this incredible trip; I bet it was a fantastic day :)

  7. Very nice pictures. Michinoku Park is a place I do not go to as much as I should.
