Kamakura Stroll Vol.11 – 北鎌倉散策 明月院の紫陽花

北鎌倉 明月院の紫陽花です。
毎年6月ごろに満開になります🌷
晴れてるときも良いですが、雨の日は満開の青が雨粒を弾いてキラキラと輝く様子や、雨の日にしか味わえない静寂と幻想的な雰囲気は、まさに「あじさい寺」と呼ばれる明月院ならではの魅力です。

This is the hydrangeas at Meigetsuin Temple in Kita-Kamakura.
They reach full bloom every year around June.🌷
While sunny days are lovely, on rainy days, the fully bloomed blue flowers glisten as they repel raindrops. The quiet and enchanting atmosphere that can only be experienced in the rain is a charm truly unique to Meigetsuin, widely known as the “Hydrangea Temple.
