GPS art of frogs, drawing in Basho’s Haiku park✨
This is a course of GPS art of frogs to be drawn in Basho-do Park, a park in a residential area of Hachinohe City, Aomori Prefecture.
It was created in 1937 by a local politician, Masu Kitamura, to commemorate his 70th birthday. Since he was a fan of Basho’s haiku, a monument to his haiku has also been erected. For this reason, the park is called Basho-do Park by local residents to this day.
This course takes you around the residential area. If you visit Hachinohe, please give it a try🐸✨
