A glimpse of Saijo. Saijo is a small town in Higashi Hiroshima, Hiroshima Prefecture. I'm going to tell some random little things through photos about this town, who knows, you'll come here someday.
Tens of bird-shaped origamis symbolizing peace in the Peace Memorial Park.
Second day of the festival, May 4, 09. As the main attraction of the festival each year, candles are put in all open area like in this Pond of Peace, in front of Peace Memorial Park.
Saijo is one of the towns that make up Higashi-Hiroshima City. In April 1973, Saijo was chosen as the home of the relocated Hiroshima University.
There is one thing very popular about Saijo, it is sake. Since July 1995, Saijo was made the home of the Brewery Laboratory of the National Tax. Each October there is also the Saijo Sake festival.
