There was an interesting person at Ninnaji, says Kaneyoshi Hoji. I feel that Ninnaji Temple is a warm place that embraces such humanity. I wonder if I'm the only one who feels quaint and heartwarming in this blank space.

This is the scenery of the early summer of the terraced rice field "Aragi Island" in Aritagawa Town, Wakayama Prefecture. I feel like it's still a little early for the scarecrow to come out.

Photographed 3/28/24. This is the love water of Kawagoe Kumano Shrine.

I learned about Impermanence and Impermanence in Japanese language class, but I thought that this might be an exception. At the Suirokaku Aqueduct of Nanzenji Temple ...

The head of the Rinzai sect Sohonzan Myoshinji Temple, Katsura Spring Temple. Moss doesn't talk and shows the same appearance all the time. But if you look at it from a sitting position, the moss speaks. Oh I see??? Is this natural? It was early spring when my legs started to go numb.

A short walk from Kiyomizu-dera Temple to Chishaku-in, a temple associated with Toyotomi Hideyoshi. It's a hidden gem. You can have this scenic garden all to yourself. There is a beautiful fusuma painting on the back, and Rikyu's favorite Garden spreads out in front of you. It was sad to leave this beautiful and gorgeous world, and I looked back many times.

The Spring Takayama Festival (Sanno Matsuri) is an annual festival of Hie Shrine, the god of the southern half of the former Takayama Castle Town, and is held on April 14 and 15 every year. The Minamoto of the festival is said to have originated during the reign of the feudal lord Kanamori of Hida (1585-1692), and the food stalls are said to have originated around 1718, and the craftsmanship is alive and well, such as the karakuri Dedication that shows off the skillful movements of the puppets and the return car with the gimmick. It was the first time I saw it live, and I had only seen it on the news and videos until now, and I was able to experience a very fresh and fantastic world view, and although my photography skills are still immature, I want to convey the impression of seeing it...

I photographed Carp streamers and my son. I also took a picture of the helmet.

It took less than 10 minutes from Yamagata Station. It is Kasumijo Park. There was a bronze statue of "Mogami Yoshimitsu". I was amazed at how amazing it was that such a large horse could support it on two legs. And as for Kasumijo Park, it was a very wonderful place such as the clock tower and the castle toe. I wanted to go again. By all means, come by car or train!

The traditional townscape is a harmonious blend of travel basket buildings from the Edo period and sericulture buildings built during the Meiji era when sericulture was popular. The irrigation water streams in the center of the road and the beautiful houses with lattice doors lining both sides of the road give you a quiet appearance reminiscent of a historical hometown. ⭐︎Key points ⭐of this photo︎ The lattice on the second floor is called "Umino lattice" and is from the Edo period. On top of the roof, there is a small roof. This is called "unpretentiousness" and is a symbol of the construction of silkworms in the Meiji era. After it was no longer used as a travel basket, it was built to emit smoke from a fire that was burned to keep warm when the guest room was used as a silkworm room. It is a feature that tells the story of the transition from Shukuba-juku to sericulture. Details of Unno Yado: The Unno Yado was opened in 1625 as a inn station in Kitakuni Highway. The Kitakuni Highway is an important highway connecting the Nakasendo and Hokuriku Highways, and in addition to transporting gold mined in Sado and changing the attendance of various feudal lords in Hokuriku, there was frequent traffic to and from Edo, and many visitors visited Zenkoji Temple. Since the beginning of the Meiji era, sericulture has become popular. The characteristics of the building from that time still remain today. Since the traditional houses have been preserved to the present, it was selected as one of the "100 Best Roads in Japan" in Showa 61 (Showa 61) and as an "Important Preservation District for Groups of Traditional Buildings" in 1987 (Showa 62).
