1000 Years Olive Tree

Ayushima seen through a thousand years of olive

Great location! Great!

Since I moved by a large sightseeing bus, I got off at the entrance near the entrance and got off after stopping and walked for about 5 minutes. It seems to be planted in "Olive Forest EAST" on the premises of Shodoshima Healthy Land. On March 15, 1950, Emperor Showa began to pick up olive seeds at the time of visiting Shodoshima, and March 15 seemed to have been made "Olive Day", and the age of the tree was matched to the anniversary of 2011 ...
