The plum tree of Kiyoka ancient temple

[Asunaro] February 9, 2018 16:00

It's time for plum blossoms to bloom.

Because I continued to endure the harsh cold of winter
Gives a dignified and beautiful flower and gives a good scent.

 

On the grounds of Kiyomasa Koji Temple in the corner of Hamacho Park
One plum blossomed.

 

This land was built in the lower house of the Hosokawa family of Kumamoto feudal lord during the Edo period.
That's right. It was founded by encouraging the spirit of Duke Kato Kiyomasa
It's a separate house in Kumamoto Honmyoji Temple.

 

It is said that ordinary people have been allowed to worship since that time.

Let's feel the signs of spring after the spring has passed.
It will be. The predecessors who call the plum alias as "Spring Announcement"
It's wonderful.
A plum blossom with three beats, "Flower, Fragrance, Fruit."
Why don't you try it?
