Hydrangea Season in Japan! Cycling Slice of Life & Garden Bike Tour of Kanazawa 🚲🪻🍦 金沢でサイクリング

It’s June in Japan, which means it’s hydrangea season! I thought I would take you along on a little bike cruise around Kanazawa this morning to see Honkoji temple, known for its hydrangeas, as well as a park on Utatsuyama filled with iris flowers in bloom.
I’ll also show you where to get some soba ice cream, and take you to a bakery, because there’s nothing better than cruising around to get snacks by bike!
