Part of a text says the following:
もみじ山は、春、夏、秋、冬、きせつによって、いろいろな花が______ ゆうめいです。
The correct answer is さくことで but I chose さいているところで. My book explains that for the latter to be correct it would have to be ところとしてゆうめい so that 'it can go with the subject もみじ山は'
I have no idea why one is correct and the other isn't. I was hoping somebody might be able to throw some light on it.
