Saitama Hidaka October 2 11:05

It is one of the nation's most famous beetle colonies in Hidaka City, Saitama Prefecture.

Hidaka City's “Kinchakuda Pearl Pearl Flower Park” is one of the largest colonial colonies in the country.

It has begun to bloom around the 15th of last month, which is about two weeks later than usual, due to the long rainy season and continued summer heat.

Visitors enjoyed taking pictures in the park, with the view of a red-bed carpet of a giant red-flowered blossom. A woman in her 40s who came from Tokyo said, “I am looking forward to it every year.

Hidaka City's 5 million Higanbana can be enjoyed until around 6th of this month.
