Original Text

　Oyama-cho, Hita City. The area called Oyama is about 10km south of the center of Hita. We went into the side road from the national highway to stay at an inn in this area. There were a fairly wide range of plum groves on both sides of the road. Among them, there was also "Okubodai Umeen". The name of the inn we stayed in also included "Ume", and there was also a plum brewery using plums picked around the inn.

It's a famous plum blossom area.

　About 10km south of National Highway 212 from the center of Hita City. Our accommodation today was in the district called "Oyama". It seems to be a large producing area of plum trees, and there were many plum gardens in a row. It was the first time I saw a plum tree that was not very tall so that it was easy to harvest. Because it is a specialty of plum, the inn we stay in is called "Umehibiki", and there was a plum wine brewery next to the inn.

Oyama Town, the production area of Oita Ichi plum, which blooms early in warm winter. 6 days ahead of the plum festival from 8th

　I heard the plum blossoms in the news and went out. The advertising flag of the plum festival from the 8th near this area. I thought it was early, but the red plum blossoms are already pretty beautiful and vivid. Is the white plum blossom about 5 minutes? Even on weekdays, probably because it was sunny, I could see many quick tourists and enjoyed the early bloom. There is also a hot spring.

This year, we're about 20 days behind schedule.

I visited on a day trip bus tour. I went to see the "Plum Festival", but this year the plum blossoms were about 20 days late, so I walked looking for the branches that were blooming. ２ It was a pity that it was just the time before, and it was fragrant and crowded.

Ume Festival

Original Text

I went there because the plum festival was being held, but it wasn't blooming at all with the buds yet. It was a pity that I thought it would have been beautiful if it was in bloom.
