Description:
"Senjo-ga-hara" (It means battle field) in Nikko. The moor is a treasure box of alpine plants and wild birds. The name came from the legend in which the gods of two nearby mountains, Mt. Nantai (It turned into a serpent) and Mt. Akagi (It became a huge centipede), battled against each other here. Mt. Nantai won the battle. The blood from the centipede became "Aka-numa" (red pond).
