A Sunday to discover

Sunday, Nov 12th, 2017, another memorable day was marked in my diary in Japan.  We, Vietnamese friends, old and new students, had a trip to a beautiful place: “Aguri no oka” (あぐりの丘).

At first, we only planned to go there to visit a second-hand market, which is hosted on the second Sunday of every month, but what we discovered later made it a worthy trip. As soon as we got there, we were amazed not only by the lively crowded market, but also by the peaceful feeling being surrounded by beautiful landscape. The market is filled with plenty of clothes, jackets, footwear, tableware, books, toys, souvenirs and lots of more. You can find good stuffs with cheap price here.

The place is not only used as a place to gather a flea market sometimes of the year. Actually, Aguri no oka is an agriculture park which occupies about 50 hectares, located on a hill in the northwest of Nagasaki. The park has a few different areas where you can experience garden harvesting, feeding cattle, or just simply enjoy the fantastic view while eating excellent piece of ice-cream!

And my favorite one...

The trip is a good chance for us to get to know each other better, and to share our experiences about student life. In the breeze of the cool autumn wind, we can feel a long way ahead leading to a bright future.
