Tarumizu Senbon Gingko Garden

The Tarumizu Senbon Gingko Garden located in Kagoshima prefecture is like a scene out of a movie, with over 1000 lined Gingko trees cutting across the mountain side. These lined Ginko trees are known as "Senbon Icho" (Thousand Gingkos), and the land is privately owned by a local man who spent several decades cultivating the land and organizing the ginko trees to make this beautiful picturesque spot possible. During the autumn season, the leaves become a vibrant yellow color and, with the background of the active volcano Sakurajima in the bay of Kagoshima, this spot is great for taking photos. Bear in mind that, while there are several good locations for taking pictures of the Tarumizu Senbon Gingko Garden, it is private land and should be respected.
