Carpet of pink cosmos waves in wind in Nago
February 27, 2014 Ryukyu Shimpo
Fully bloomed pink cosmoses fill about 6.6 hectares of rice paddies in Kawakami, Nago. It is the season to enjoy blooming cosmoses. The area is called “Haneji Tabukkwa,” which means rich paddies. The local volunteer group in the community has started to offer visitors farm work experience and farmhouse accommodation since February. The group members think that a carpet of pink cosmos in rice paddies will be a new spot to attract visitors.
