Notsuchiyama - Chichibu District

Benches are also installed in places, and sidewalks are maintained.散 歩 for a walk

The best course is to take a walk in the mountains and visit Hodosan Shrine.

It is one of the famous cherry blossoms. It is very beautiful and there are not so many people so you can take a leisurely stroll. About 5 minutes walk from the shrine.

I came here around Kumagaya Sakura Tsutsumi and Sakura Bridge near Fukiage Station. The cherry blossoms ? were in full bloom and the weather was blessed, so it was a blissful time.

Even though it is a mountain, it is not a steep mountain like mountain climbing. It's just right for hiking and picnics. In spring, it is filled with cherry blossoms and is a famous place. The fresh green season and the autumn leaves of the cherry blossoms will be beautiful. Please be aware that some land may be privately owned. Please be careful about the fields. Notsuchiyama seen from a distance is small, but it looks like Yoshino's Ichimoku Senbon Sakura. So it's good to look at it from a distance, or to admire the cherry blossoms up close. Even more during the snowstorm. is.

Notsuchiyama I headed to Nagataki for a preliminary survey of Notsuchiyama, which says the cherry blossoms are beautiful. At the traffic light in front of Nagatoro Station on National Highway No. 140, I entered the approach to Hodosan Shrine, which has a large white torii gate. A large parking lot spread out when I turned left following the small guide of the local museum and the former Arai family residence. When I asked the receptionist on the map the name of the mountain in the south, which seems to be Notsuchiyama, it was Gondayama. What about Notsuchiyama? I heard that it was a mountain right there, and it was a hill-like mountain that didn't feel like a mountain. When I walked leisurely on the slope of the flower field, there was a guide to Notsuchiyama on my right. Notsuchiyama, which was beautifully mowed, was a gentle uphill slope, and old cherry trees were planted here and there. Speaking of old trees, it was thick and the height of the tree was not so high, but the cherry blossoms here were not only looking up, but also looking up. Soon I reached the top of my right hand, but it didn't look like the top, and there was a hill in the east (on the left side of the uphill road), so I went there. There was a feeling of openness, a good view, and there was a good atmosphere that seems to be the summit. I thought it would be good to make it here in Yamashiro, so I removed the vines that were entwined in the hesitation and tried to come back when the flowers were in bloom. The northeastern part was a flower field with a wide slope that looked like a large piece of soil. I also wondered if Notsuchiyama was a front-back burial mound. I want to come back when I see the cherry blossoms. Notsuchiyama, thinking of the blooming appearance of cherry blossom trees that are too high
