There are many peony flowers in the garden to enjoy in the season.

The temple is in the process of building a three-story pagoda, like a model from the Asuka period.

Osaki Kamijima Henro 大崎上島遍路 / 大崎上島八十八ヶ所お遍路
Okayama Osaki Henro Michi 岡山市大崎遍路道

- quote -
OSAKIKAMIJIMA TOWN - Ōsakikamijima
Osakikamijima is a town consisting of 20 islands of varying sizes. Looking out over the Seto Inland Sea from the summit observation deck of Kannominesan Mountain (453m), visitors can enjoy a breathtaking panoramic view of 115 interspersed islands. Kinoe Onsen is a popular spot where guests can sit back and relax while watching boats passing through the archipelago.
As well as a rich variety of fruit, including mandarin oranges, blueberries, strawberries, and figs, Osakikamijima has invested effort in developing a fishing industry that not only "catches" but "cultivates" produce.
- source : hiroshima-navi.or... -

- quote -
Osaki-kamijima 大崎上島
Osaki-kamijima 大崎上島 he Osaki Islands consists of four islands: Osaki-kamijima, Osaki-shimojima, Kami-kamagarijima, Shimo-kamagarijima now known for their slow pace of life and cultivation of fruits: blueberries, lemons, mikan oranges. Many of the younger population have left, schools have closed and the islands are gradually depopulating.
The Shimanami Kaido makes a large turn on Omishima Island, extending southward to Shikoku. This of course makes far better commercial sense, as a means to flow goods and materials to the larger population base there. But geographically speaking, the road could have continued its gradual bend to the west, connecting across a chain of islands all the way to Kure.
It takes nearly as much time to pronounce the names of the islands as it does to traverse them: Osaki-kamijima, Osaki-shimojima, Kami-kamagarijima, Shimo-kamagarijima. You'll note the repetition in the words 'kami' and 'shimo,' upper and lower respectively. The kami islands are closer to Kyoto and therefore considered the superior. Yet ironically, they seemed the least healthy economically of the four.
