This photograph captures the sunflowers spreading across the slope from below, taken from the rear. The unique three-dimensionality of the slope is accentuated, impressively portraying the sunflowers stretching toward the blue sky. Marigold Hill, true to its name, is a charming spot where flowers spread across a naturally surrounded slope. In summer, its beautifully blooming sunflower fields captivate visitors. The defining feature of this location is its three-dimensional landscape, utilizing the hilly terrain. The sunflowers bloom as if covering the slope, creating a scene reminiscent of a vast carpet of flowers. Another appealing aspect of the sunflower fields at Marigold Hill is how easy it is to take photos here, utilizing the natural elevation of the slope without needing a ladder. You can enjoy the scenery from various perspectives, such as looking down from above or looking up from below, making it a recommended spot for everyone from beginner to advanced photographers. During the morning hours when the sun rises, soft light illuminates the sunflowers, creating a refreshing atmosphere perfect for photography. Conversely, in the evening or during sunset, the contrast between the sky dyed golden and the sunflowers creates a beautiful, different expression of the field, allowing visitors to enjoy the sunflower field in a completely different light.
