Koshimizu Genseikaen Station !


by Kazu

No station director was manned in Koshimizu Genseikaen railway station but the railway is still in service and many train manias visit the station as well as the one at Kitahama. It had been one of the most popular place for tourists to visit, particularly in the season of blooming flowers. 
"Genseikaen" means wild flower park in Japanese. So many rugosa roses bloom in June and July. The coastline facing Okhotsk Ocean leads to the World Natural Heritage of UNESCO "Shiretoko Peninsula".
It was cloudy on that day and the gray low clouds hid Shiretoko Mountain Ridge. It seemed a food stand may be in service at the station until years ago but nobody was in the booth in the station.
