Godo no Oicho

OtherNatural beauty untouched by mankind

Standing 36 meters tall, this huge gingko tree is thought to be more than 500 years old. It is particularly lovely in early spring, when the first greenery emerges, and at the peak of autumn leaf season. Its exposed roots hang down like udders, so new mothers sometimes visit them to pray for sufficient mother's milk.
