Even though today was a national holiday, I had to spend the morning working; this is Japan after all! There was enough time for a little stroll in the afternoon though so we decided to wander round the shiminomori, up past Takasaka, just to get a bit of fresh air.
It’s a very pleasant area with plenty of trees, and other points of interest to head towards like a nearby shrine or the Peace Museum to add a bit of interest. Perfect for a picnic or a solo walk.
