Over 7，000 people visit this beautiful phlox moss garden in Shintomi Town，Japan's Miyazaki Prefecture on any given day in the months of March and April，drawn both by the beauty of this scented purple carpet and the touching story behind its very existence.

The story of this popular tourist spot can be traced back to 1956， when Mr.and Mrs.Kuroki， a newlywed couple，purchased a plot of land in Shintomi.They built a house and a dairy farm on it and worked hard for several years，tending to a herd of 60 cows.They hoped to take a trip around Japan when they eventually retired，but things didn't quite turn out as they had planned.

At age 52， after 30 years of marriage， Mrs.Kuroki developed an eye condition and went blind a week later.Devastated at the prospect of living with a disability，the poor woman grew depressed and shut herself from the world，choosing a life of seclusion.Mr.Kuroki was saddened to see his normally cheerful wife in so much pain.Because she couldn't travel across Japan as they had always planned，he wanted to find a way to bring the whole of Japan to her.

在新富町鎮(zhèn)7000多人在三月或四月前來(lái)參觀那個(gè)在日本宮崎縣的美麗的夾竹桃苔蘚園，人們被這個(gè)芳香紫色的美麗地毯和它背后的感人的故事所吸引。

這個(gè)著名旅游勝地的故事可以追溯到1956年，黑木先生和夫人，一對(duì)新婚夫婦，在新富購(gòu)買(mǎi)了一塊土地。他們?cè)谕恋厣辖ㄔ炝艘凰孔樱粋€(gè)奶牛場(chǎng)，在那勞作了多年，同時(shí)養(yǎng)了60頭奶牛。他們希望退休后繞日本旅行，但事情并沒(méi)有完全像他們的計(jì)劃的那樣。

他們已經(jīng)結(jié)婚30年了，52歲的黑木夫人的一只眼睛出現(xiàn)了問(wèn)題，在一周后失明了。殘疾使得黑木夫人對(duì)未來(lái)的生活感到很擔(dān)憂，可憐的女人變得很沮喪，把自己與世界隔離，選擇了隱居生活。黑木先生看到原本快樂(lè)的妻子如此痛苦，他感到很傷心。因?yàn)槠拮硬荒芟裰八麄円恢庇?jì)劃的那樣周游日本，他就想找到一種方法把整個(gè)日本帶給她。

一天他站在花園里，靈感突然來(lái)了。他瞥了一眼粉紅色的草夾竹桃，特別芳香的花。他意識(shí)到這花特別適合妻子，因?yàn)槠拮涌梢酝ㄟ^(guò)視覺(jué)和嗅覺(jué)感受到它。如果他在花園里種足夠多的花，他認(rèn)為人們可能會(huì)每天來(lái)看他們，那樣他的妻子就有很多拜訪者。

所以黑木先生在隨后的兩年中為新的草夾竹桃花園鋪了地基。他砍倒了他所有的樹(shù)木，關(guān)閉了奶牛場(chǎng)，騰出所有土地來(lái)種更多的花。幾年后，他們的房子被亮粉色的花海包圍著，就像黑木先生預(yù)測(cè)的那樣，吸引了來(lái)自四面八方的游客。

他種下了第一播種子，現(xiàn)在已經(jīng)超過(guò)十年了。三月和四月之間每天有7000人從鄰近的城鎮(zhèn)和地區(qū)來(lái)參觀該家庭，不僅要見(jiàn)證美麗的粉紅色花，也為了看一眼那對(duì)在花園走動(dòng)的友愛(ài)夫婦。不用說(shuō)，太太臉上總是洋溢著大大的微笑。

這個(gè)地方更特別的是，當(dāng)鮮花盛開(kāi)的時(shí)候，黑木一家把這個(gè)私人的地方向公眾開(kāi)放，讓公眾走到其中欣賞拍照，他還與參觀者交談。

Inspiration struck when he was standing in his garden one day，and he glanced at the pink shibazakura （moss phlox）， a highly fragrant flower.He realized that this flower was perfect for his wife，because it could be experienced both through sight and smell.And if he filled his garden with enough flowers，he figured that people might come to see them every day，so his wife would always have visitors.

So Mr.Kuroki spent the next two years laying the foundation for the new shibazakura garden.He chopped down all his trees，closed the dairy farm and used every bit of land he could spare to plant more flowers.Within a few years，their house was surrounded by a sea of bright pink blooms that，just as Mr.Kuroki predicted，attracted visitors from far and wide.

It has now been over a decade since he planted the first seeds.Nearly 7，000 people from neighboring towns and prefectures visit the Kuroki household every day between March and April，not only to witness the pretty pink blossoms，but also to catch a glimpse of the lovely couple walking around the property.Needless to say，Mrs.Kuroki is always seen wearing a huge smile on her face!

Another thing that makes this place special is that it is private property that the Kuroki family makes available to the public while the flowers are in bloom，allowing them to walk around the place and take photos，and even engaging in conversation with their visitors.
