Scallion field - Tottori

The flowering time of scallions is very very beautiful.

Anyway, it is a mysterious scenery that is not like Japan. Before the flower blooms here, the buds are very beautiful, but when the flower blooms, it is dyed purple. I can see a little sea. And quiet. If you want to take a walk, go down the road from this field to the sea, you will come to the parking lot where there is a sandy beach rest, but stop at the parking lot and walk to here You can take a leisurely walk. In a good sense, there is only a field, but it feels good when it is weathered. By the way, there are sometimes camels waiting in the vicinity of the entrance to the field (entrance from the San-in road), and if you look at it from the road, you may see it.

This raccoon field is also part of the Tottori Sand Dunes. You can see the Sea of ​​Japan from the hill and it is the best view. At night, the starry sky also spreads. The camellia flower can be seen in October.

It was wonderful. One side of the scallions is planted and blooming on the dry ground. It doesn't feel as moist as plants that need a lot of water, which is very nice.

From the end of October to the beginning of November ... The lavender-colored scallions are beautiful. It is difficult to understand because there is no signboard for the scallion field. After passing the Tottori Sand Dunes and running a little east, there is a parking lot at Oasis Square. If you put your car there and walk down a light slope, you will see a vast scallion field. Let's take a picture in consideration of the farmer who is doing farm work.

3 minutes by car or 15 minutes on foot from the parking lot of Tottori Sand Dunes. As of October 23, 2021, it was still in a bud-like state, but it was colored in a light lavender color. It was free (or rather just a field along the road) but not crowded.

2021.11.06 When I was searching for beautiful flowers at this time of early winter, "The flowers of Tottori scallions are in full bloom now. I found a sentence and a photo. While the autumn leaves of Okutsu Valley in Kagamino Town, Okayama Prefecture are being introduced on TV, I decided to go to Tottori. It was said that the scallions were cultivated in the area around the Tottori Sand Dunes, but the location was not clear and we headed for the Tottori Sand Dunes first. It takes about 5 minutes to drive past the Sand Museum, the sand dune entrance, and the Sea of ​​Japan on your left. When you see the guide to Oasis Square on your right, you will find the parking lot of Oasis Square. There is a small hill with a sand-proof forest as a boundary, and on the road leading to the back, I found the information board of "San'in Kaigan Geopark Scallion Field". I parked my car in the free parking lot and I I decided to walk toward the hill. If I walked a little from the parking lot, there was a sandy soil similar to a one-sided dune where I couldn't think that agricultural products would grow at all, and that sand Scallion fields are cultivated on the soil at equal intervals of about 20 cm, and despite their weak appearance, each of the strains grows dignifiedly and powerfully toward the sky without the wind blowing from the Sea of ​​Japan. A number of small red-purple flowers were radiating in a sphere of about 5 to 6 cm. Such a landscape spreads all over the surrounding sand dunes, and even if the major Hokkaido is not a lavender field in Furano, There is also a place where red-purple hills are spread, and while listening to the sound of the wind blowing from the nearby Sea of ​​Japan and the sound of the waves crashing against the sand dunes, the blue sky is unusual at this time of year. Below, I enjoyed a calm time. A lot of people of all ages and men and women visited, and among them, a student-style girls' group who came by car wraps the flowers gently with both hands. It was a very impressive sight as it symbolized the loveliness and rarity of the scallion flowers. It was also the first flower I saw, and it was a really good opportunity. By the way, the next day, A local colleague also went to the scallion field and took a picture of the magenta hill, but when I saw it, the amount of flowers was incomparable to the scenery I saw, and the vividness was also The difference in cloud mud is ... Even if it is introduced as the area around the scallion field, it is still important to contact the tourist association etc. and ask them to tell you the best place. It also has a large toilet, and it may be one of the relatively safe places where people come and go unexpectedly. I heard that the flowering time is short. How about trying it? It's a very cute flower. ◕‿◕.

It is one of Japan's leading producers of scallion fields created by cultivating sand dunes, and you can enjoy pretty pale red-purple flowers from late October to mid-November. Once again, I think that I will visit this village when the flowers of scallions are in full bloom. This song was written when Empress Michiko came to Tottori during her Majesty's era, because it wasn't the season for scallions, but Michiko was sung in 2011. When I visited the prefecture at the "National Rich Sea Making Tournament Tottori Tournament" in March, I saw the flowers of scallions that actually bloomed.
