Yamayuri
Location: Rabbit's Leap
In Japan, the largest lily with big white flowers stands out in the lush green forest during the summer. It grows well on the slopes of the forest with good drainage and ventilation, where the sunlight shines through the trees. The strong-scented flowers attract large swallowtail butterflies. The bulbs can grow up to 20cm and are sometimes used as food. -
Sankouchou
Location: Kakesu's Migration Road
In early summer, birds migrate from southern countries such as Taiwan and the Philippines to breed. They are called "Sangokuchou" because their chirping sounds like "Tsuki (moon), Hi (sun), Hoshi (star) Hoi Hoi Hoi", which refers to the three lights of the moon, sun, and stars. They are characterized by bright blue feathers around their eyes and long tail feathers that are three times longer than their body. They prefer to live in slightly dark areas with cedar and cypress trees. -
Miyama Stag Beetle
Location: Kabutomushi Hill
The stag beetle that visits to suck the sap of oak and konara trees. It is characterized by fine golden hairs on its body and ear-like protrusions on its head. It is said to live in deep mountains and mountainous areas, and it prefers high-altitude, cool and temperate climates. Here, even though the altitude is low (220m), you can see it as often as the sawtooth stag beetle, which is common in warm flatlands, when the northwestern wind blows in winter and snow falls on the Hachimine mountain range.
