To the final destination of this trip, Nanzenji Temple. I don't know how many days I waited to see this gate, but it feels like a long time. This gate sat majestically as if it had been waiting. I forgot to point to my umbrella and stood there dumbfounded.

Kyoto is no longer the home of the Japanese people. It makes me sad to think about it, but it may be becoming true. However, I would like to see only the Tochi-in Temple, which is related to many warlords such as Fukushima Masanori, in our hometown. Now I just enjoy the garden that no one knows.

3 minutes walk from Kyoto National Museums. Kayakuni Shrine dedicated to Hideyoshi. It seems that the Karamon gate that was originally located in Nanzenji Temple Totou Kinjiin was relocated. It used to be in Nijo Castle, and before that it was in Fushimi Castle. It is a wonderful Karamon that conveys the opulence of the Momoyama period. In front of the gate, two bows, two applause, one bow.

Nanzenji Temple Totou Tenjoan, I walked in the midst of the rain. Someone once said that it is the Japanese sensibility to enhance the beauty of water as it is and feel the beauty. I see. Was this what it was?

Kanchi-in, a temple near Toji Temple. One of the hidden gems known only to those in the know. From the guest hall, a national treasure where Miyamoto Musashi is said to have stayed, you can see the garden of dry mountain water and the five-story pagoda. The view from the bullet train is quaint, but the five-story pagoda seen from here is also beautiful.

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.

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.

This is the ceiling painting "Twin Dragon Ceiling" taken at Kenninji Temple, which I visited on a walk in Kyoto sometime. When I heard about the photo contest on Japanese history being held in 2024 (Year of the Dragon), this photo was the first thing that came to mind. Dragons have been the subject of worship and worship since ancient times! Kyoto, dragons, temples, and other elements are all suitable for the subject of Japanese history, so I decided to post it.

Yuragawa Bridge The blue of the sky, the sea, the trains, and the red of the historic iron bridge built in the Taisho era were wonderful.

Photographed at the former Main Building of the Kyoto Prefectural Government Office The Shidarezakura (weeping cherry blossoms) in the courtyard is said to be the grandson of the first "Gion Shidarezakura (weeping cherry blossoms)" in Maruyama Park.

It is a river in Fushimi Ward, Kyoto. In spring, the cherry blossom trees are reflected on the surface of the river and become very beautiful. I do it every year, but no matter how many times I take it, I can't finish it.

Recently, I went to take a photo of the illumination of Byodo-in Temple I'm glad the cherry blossoms just bloomed. There was no wind and the weather was good, so I was able to take a good picture. Lens FE 20mm F1.8 Date 2024/03/29

My first trip to Kyoto with her. The two of us visited the Keage Incline, which was left as the site of the inclined railway, wearing kimonos. When I looked up at the cherry blossom trees lining the old railroad tracks, I saw swollen buds hanging in front of me. I felt the arrival of Spring in her back with the warm sunlight shining through.

This photo was taken at the backwari embankment in Kyoto. Petals have fallen into the hollows of cherry trees, and sunlight is shining on them. I took a picture of the cherry blossom petals because they looked like birds and seemed to be leaving the nest.

This photo was taken at the backwari embankment in Kyoto. I wanted to make a picture frame of cherry blossoms.

Nestled along the banks of the Arashiyama River in Kyoto, a scene unfolds that whispers of Japan's timeless beauty and rich heritage. Here, where the past meets the present, the leaves of the trees sway in the breeze and gently cascade onto the water's surface like delicate memories. The river, a silent witness to centuries gone by, reflects the vibrant hues of the foliage and the graceful curves of the ancient bridge of Togetsu-kyo. This photograph is not just a snapshot in time but a promise to preserve these views of Japan's serene landscapes for the future, ensuring that the essence of this magical place endures for generations to come..

I visited Kiyomizu-dera Temple, which opens before dawn. It was a wonderful scene, with the bright red autumn leaves emerging from the darkness and the sunrise illuminating the cityscape of Kyoto from the mountainside. The scenery of the theater for several hours, which was eventually dyed into the blue sky, was a masterpiece.
