Japanese Rice Art

For just five months a year, farming artists from the Japanese village of Inakadate create an amazing work of art using growing rice. The incredible image can only be seen from high above the ground, in which their rice paddies are put together to tell a unique story. These images are truly massive and take a ton of time, practice, experience, and patience to execute without making any potential mistakes. Somehow, people are able to create amazing things with items like sand and, in this case, rice.

This is called Tambo art, and they do this by planting multicolored rice into the field. It takes a lot of time to perfect, but as it grows, it creates a unique view.
