Hiraodai truly lives up to its reputation! It’s one of Japan’s three great karst landscapes. As far as the eye can see, grayish-white limestone rocks are scattered across the vast green plateau. From a distance, they look like a flock of sheep leisurely playing in the grass. It’s a truly distinctive sight!
It was my first time seeing this kind of landscape, and it felt so novel, completely different from the mountain scenery I usually imagine. The blue sky, green grass, and limestone rocks of all sizes come together to create a vast and soothing beauty.
Standing on this plateau, feeling the natural breeze and admiring the unique scenery before me, I couldn’t help but stay a little longer and take some photos.
