A small grove of centuries-old kusunoki (camphor) trees offering towering trunks, textured bark and dappled canopy light — an intimate nature subject inside urban Izumiotsu. Best at morning or late afternoon for side-light through leaves; spring and autumn add color. Public, no entry fee; reachable by local train/bus and short walk from Izumiotsu station. Weekday mornings have fewer visitors. Respect local signage — some trees may be considered sacred.
