A 3.4 Hectares Garden Covered With 3,000 Azalea Bushes!

There's an old but totally charming hotel in Gamagori-City that goes by the fitting name of Gamagori Classic Hotel, operating since 1934 and widely renowned in Aichi Prefecture. Located close to the Mikawa Bay coast, from the hotel it's possible to get amazing views of the sea which, very romantically, includes the cute island of Takeshima. In spring, however, the scenery gets its gorgeousness increased tenfold by the beautiful azalea bushes, which compose the picturesque place by the jaw-dropping count of three thousand! The period during which they bloom is called, again properly, "Azalea Festival" and everything is perfect: the well-tended gardens, the ocean view, the majestic hotel building with its bronze roof, the island, and the azaleas.
