Miyuki Koen or "Going Out Park" in #yamagata. 🌸

"Going out Park"  aka みゆきこうえん.

It's the home to a museum dedicated to a Japanese poet named Saito Mokichi.

It is a scenic park that "the Mokichi Saito Memorial" overlooks a certain Zao in the garden. It is a well-known spot for the locals here in Kaminoyama-shi, #yamagata. 🌸🌸

About 200 Furuki including somei-yoshino cherry trees and yaezakura decorated the park with gorgeous carpet of pink during spring.
