Insider tip — Sera Kayu Land serves the Kayu highland community of Sera-cho on the Hiroshima plateau where the mountain air of the Chugoku highlands creates a summer temperature some five degrees cooler than the Seto Inland Sea coast below. The Kayu area is part of the Sera plateau floriculture zone whose cool-season growing conditions produce high-quality lilies, roses, and horticultural crops that descend to Hiroshima and Osaka markets through highland roads connecting the San-in and San-yo coasts across the Chugoku mountain spine.
