Meet the autumn scenery dyed by bright red kochias in the flower fields of Igano
Igano no Hanabatake is located in Minakami Town, Gunma Prefecture, and is a famous flower garden where visitors can enjoy the unique beauty of autumn. During the short period when the flowers are at their best, kochia (broomrape) turns the entire area bright red, creating an otherworldly, magical landscape. The kochia is carefully nurtured by local volunteers, and is free of charge and easy to visit. Combined with the quiet mountain air, it is a healing spot that will calm your mind.
Key points for photography
The key to photographing the Igano flower field is to create depth from a slightly lower angle by taking advantage of the rounded rows of kochia, and to include the blue sky and surrounding mountain range in the background to simultaneously express the expanse of red and the serenity of nature.
