Hokkaido Lavender Tour in Summer(I, II, III, VI)

In the summer, lavender viewing is one of the top attractions in Hokkaido.  Lavender is from a group of herbs native to the Mediterranean coast.  It is difficult to grow in areas of high temperature and humidity, but the climate of Furano provides ideal conditions for growing lavender, making it the symbol of Furano.  Both public and private lavender fields extend along Furano City, and the whole hillside turns into a mass of violet in the peak season.  Lavender has been cultivated in Hokkaido for more than half a century.  Nowadays, Furano’s lavender fields attract large numbers of visitors to the region every summer when the plants are in full bloom.
