A Synonym For A Beauties


The peony. They bloomed much more than my last visit.
牡丹の花。この前行った時より、さらに開花していました。

There is a saying in Japan. It's a synonym for a beautiful woman.
" Standing she's a peony, seated a tree peony, and her bearing as she walks a lily."
日本には美人を形容するこんな諺があります。
「立てば芍薬、座れば牡丹、歩く姿は百合の花」

I agree.
確かに綺麗だね。
