Kaisei and Minamiashigara: Hydrangea Flowers and the Temple of the Tengu

From Kaisei Town where hydrangeas bloom abundantly along the embankments, to Daiyuzan Saijoji (大雄山最乗寺), an ancient temple with a tengu legend. A family day-course in Kaisei and Minamiashigara featuring the thatched-roof traditional farmhouse Setoya Shiki, a Hakone lunch at the roadside station, and the wooden log athletic park—the kind of rainy season day that makes you want to venture out.
