I love the sunset scean in Chigasaki. The sun setting in the Izu Peninsula. The silhouette of Mt. Fuji. The sun and clouds present us with the sunset. The sea is bathed in sunset. The afterglow shines on the beach. Surfers on their way home. I collected scenes from Chigasaki in the twilight…
Yellow sand has come again this year. It’s amazing to be able to fly here from the Takla Makan Desert and the Gobi Desert in inland China, but it can also travel across the Pacific Ocean to North America.Sunset observed at Tsujido Beach of Shonan had an unclear outline and a yellow sky due to the effect of yellow sand.
Summer of lunar calendar has already begun this year. According to the 72 seasons in ancient China, it is around the time when frogs begin to sing. The flowers are starting to bloom all at once and the fresh green is also beautiful. The sky is a clear blue. The season has come when the humidity is getting higher and I can enjoy the red sunset.
Chigasaki was hit by a spring storm on this day. After the heavy rain and wind, God gave me a wonderful gift. When I went to the beach, the clouds, the sea and the beach were reddish colored. I enjoyed the afterglow for a while….
The Soga Plum Grove in Odawara is at its peak. At Kozu Station (KO- ZU) on the JR Tokaido Line, transfer to the Gotemba Line and get off at Shimosoga Station. About 35,000 white plum trees were in full bloom and reflected the sunset. Mt. Fuji is also nearby. This village of Soga is famous for ‘Soga Monogatari’, one of Japan’s three famous avenges. I remembered the Soga brothers at his family temple, Jozen-ji Temple.
Early blooming rape blossoms are in full bloom at Mt. Azuma in Ninomiya Town, Kanagawa Prefecture. The weather was nice and the silhouette of Mt. Fuji was beautiful. The sweet scent of rape blossoms fills the air and makes me feel refreshed for a while. The flower language is “cheerful love”.Spring is drawing near.“Risshun” (the first day of spring)is coming soon.
Oiso has a beautiful row of pine trees and still retains many of the atmosphere of the old Tokaido. The beach of Oiso has been called “Koyurugi no Hama Beach” since ancient times, and is a place where beautiful utamakura (a place famed in classical Japanese poetry) appeared in Manyoshu.When the railway opened in the Meiji period, the area flourished as a seaside resort (Be the first in Japan) and as a villa area for Genkun in the Meiji period. Oiso is said to be the birthplace of Shonan due to its mild climate, and there are many historical places such as the place associated with Toragozen,, who fell in love with Juro, the older brother of the Soga brothers. I thought of it on the beach.
Chigasaki Beach on New Year’s Eve had a clear air and the last sunset and sunset of the year was very vivid. There were so many people on the beach that they watched the last sunset of the year. I wish you all the best next year. Thank you for stopping by the chigasaki Sunset Museum this year. I look forward to working with you again next year.
I enjoyed the Koharubiyori of Mt. Azuma in late autumn. Mt. Azuma near Ninomiya Station on the JR Tokaido Line is a small mountain 136 meters above sea level with a wonderful view overlooking Tanzawa, Fuji, Hakone, Izu Peninsula, Oshima, Miura Peninsula and Sagami Bay. How is Chami, the idol cat of Mt. Azuma in Scottish Fold walking up to the top of the mountain? It was a beautiful sunset.
Ritto has come again this year. It is said that the day of 24 divisions of the old calendar is the day when autumn reaches its climax and the sign of winter begins to appear. From now until the first day of spring is winter. The day before the first day of winter, the Chigasaki Beach saw a spectacular sunset that seemed to welcome the first day of winter.
