This photo captures the spring scenery at Hondoji Temple in Chiba Prefecture, where beautiful hydrangeas add color.

This photograph was taken with hydrangeas and stone lanterns arranged in perfect balance. At Hondoji Temple, famous as a hydrangea temple in Matsudo City, Chiba Prefecture, hundreds of hydrangeas bloom magnificently every year from spring through the rainy season, coloring the temple grounds in vivid hues. Walking along the Hydrangea Road, flowers in shades of blue, pink, purple, and white catch the eye one after another, creating the sensation of being inside a tunnel of blossoms.
