This photo was taken while crouching down to capture the shorter sunflowers in Aigo no Sato's sunflower field. Aigo no Sato, a place to connect with Saitama's nature, is a tourist and experiential spot where you can encounter flowers and the cycle of life throughout the seasons. The summer of 2025 was especially special, with sunflowers and cosmos blooming simultaneously in adjacent fields, creating a flower field that spread out like a painting. At the lotus pond, the mystical sight of early morning blooms reflecting on the water surface captivates visitors. The grounds offer diverse nature experiences: fruit and olive orchards, a petting zoo, a waterfront area where fireflies flit about, and mixed woodlands.
