What is Waya Tree?
It is a very important place planted in memory of Kazuya, Fumiya's older brother, who died in the NHK drama series "Churasan.
This tree is a banyan tree and was brought from elsewhere and planted. Many people must have seen it dying because it is not suitable for the land and has been replanted many times.

In the past, the tree could be seen from the "Churasan Observatory," but since it was closed in 2012, it is no longer possible to see the current state of the Waya tree.
