We visited an authoritative professor of botany at Tohoku University.

Since I had a little time left before the appointed time, I was able to take a tour of the attached botanical garden.

It is said to be a valuable botanical garden located in Aobayama in Sendai City, where nature has remained largely untouched since the Edo period.

vinegar. The whole of Aobayamanational natural monumentis also specified.

Not only is it used for research, but it is also open to the public, although it is not well known.

And anyone can enter. (with low admission fee)

Because of the rich natural vegetation, it seems that a variety of wild animals also live there.

I didn't have much time, so I could only see a small part of it, but there was also an exhibition hall, which was very interesting and I will definitely be visiting next year.

I wanted to go there again slowly. This is a fascinating area for plant lovers.

Not only herbs, but plants have a wide range of benefits for humans and living things.

I had a great time talking with Professor O about various things. Next year, we will hold a seminar to hear and learn about these plants.

Minar is also planned.

looking forward to!
