Tea Fields Tour - Discovery & Photo Walk in Wazuka

We will discover the hidden nooks and crannies of the town and landscape of Wazuka, including sites like the Shohoji Temple and Ishitera tea fields. With an 800 year history of tea cultivation, Wazuka has been shaped and sculpted by active tea farming that continues today. On this truly off-the-hidden-path, walking tour, we will explore the town and hills around Wazuka to find hidden treasures and beautiful spots for great pictures. Beautiful in all seasons - from bright sunny days to mountains shrouded in low hanging clouds - Wazuka's evergreen tea plants and cedar groves are always a beautiful sight. The tour route will reflect the beautiful of each season during late afternoon light - from cherry blossoms in the spring to red Japanese maple leaves in the fall. This walk is one of discovery, with a photography twist - whether you are using a high-power camera, a smart phone, or just using your eyes - in a place where it is very rare to see any other tourists.
