November 24, 1999. The 'Flower Valley', Awaji Island Park. Awaji Island, Hyogo Prefecture.

Awaji Island, Hyogo Prefecture. At the 'Flower Valley' of Awaji Island Park, Awaji Highway Oasis on the Kobe-Awaji Naruto Driveway. I took this picture as I found some tinged trees. This tree is, apparently, a 'Rakuusho: cedar group, and also called the bald cypress. Has branches and leaves similar to those of metasequoia. Tree roots grow in swamplands. The leaves fall attached to short branch'. I never knew that cedars tinge.
