It is "Mantoukai" in Hagi City, Yamaguchi Prefecture. Every year, Daishoin Temple and Tokoji Temple, the bodhi temples of the Mōri family, the lord of the Hagi clan, are the stage. To mourn Mohri's bodhi, more than 500 stone lanterns are lit by candles, creating a fantastic world. The photo shows the "Welcome Fire" held at Daishoin Temple on August 13.

There is an image that the Arashiyama in Kyoto is always crowded, but Atago Nenbutsuji Temple, which is about a 30-minute walk from the Togetsukyo Bridge, is truly a hidden gem spot. It is also called the "Temple of 1,200 Arhats", and you can meet a variety of expressive arhats, and although it is a small temple, there are new discoveries no matter how many times you visit. It is also recommended that you can see the beautiful scenery at any time in spring, summer, autumn and winter.
