This photo was taken of the "No. 8 Wild Buddha" and higanbana (cluster amaryllis) in Takumi no Sato, and this time the focus was on the wild Buddha. The serenity of the stone Buddha contrasts with the vividness of the flowers, creating a serene atmosphere. Takumi no Sato, a sightseeing spot in Minakami Town, Gunma Prefecture, is a popular spot that retains the original landscape of a nostalgic farming village. Visitors can enjoy woodworking, pottery, and washi paper making at the hands-on workshops scattered throughout the countryside. The area around Hachiban-no-butsu, where higanbana (cluster amaryllis) and cosmos bloom in autumn and red-colored manjusaka flowers spread out, is a must-see photogenic spot for camera lovers.
