This photo captures the beautiful scenery of sunflowers and sunset I enjoyed in Chiba, taken at Sakura Furusato Plaza.

This photo captures sunflowers and the setting sun during the golden hour. The sunflowers, blooming with their faces turned upward, are utterly charming. Sakura Furusato Plaza is known as a particularly captivating spot in Chiba Prefecture for its expansive sunflower fields. As summer draws to a close, the plaza area bursts into vibrant sunflowers, warmly welcoming visitors.Among these, the scenery at dusk is especially memorable. As the sun begins to sink into the western sky, the entire sunflower field is enveloped in golden light, while shades of red and orange spread across the sky. This beautiful contrast is a fleeting miracle woven by nature, a sight that will surely make anyone stop and gaze in wonder.Visiting during sunset hours allows you to enjoy the fantastic atmosphere created by the perfectly harmonized, ever-changing hues of the sky and the sunflowers' vivid yellow. On days with a gentle breeze, the sight of the sunflowers swaying softly adds a comforting touch, enveloping you in a sensation as if the entire plaza were quietly breathing. For photography enthusiasts, capturing the sky through the sunflowers from a low angle is recommended.This allows you to capture both the vastness of the sky and the vibrant presence of the sunflowers in a single frame.
