This photo was taken at Yokosuka Shobuen, where a single dark purple iris was quietly blooming, creating a striking contrast with its surroundings. Easy to reach from Kamakura, Yokosuka Iris Garden offers a beautiful view of seasonal flowers in full bloom. There are many varieties of irises at their best, and the scenery is worth seeing no matter where you walk. The harmony of the tranquil waterside and irises creates a soothing landscape. The hydrangeas bloom quietly in the drizzling rain, and you can feel the flavor of the area as you walk along. In spring, wisteria flowers wrap the trellises, presenting a nostalgic view.
