The Narrow Road to the Deep North Tendo Safflower Festival
おくのほそ道天童紅花まつり
We present the safflowers of Tendo, which Matsuo Basho visited over three hundred years ago and wrote, "Mayuhaki wo omokage ni shite beni no hana." When the flowers are in full bloom, the safflower fields are dyed a brilliant yellow. There are also plenty of events, such as photo sessions, haiku competitions, and safflower dyeing experiences!
