This photo captures the essence of Kyoto so well in my opinion. Cherry blossoms and a yakatabune. It's so simple and yet so elegant at the same time. I like how the boat is just slightly obscured by the cherry blossoms and you can feel how the wood on the roof of the boat has aged just by looking at it. Kyoto has so many beautiful sights to see and experiences to try. I'm looking forward to one of these boat rides the next time I go, and I'm also planning on visiting a kawadoko because I've eaten by a river before so I know how refreshing it is, but I've never eaten OVER a river before (inside a boat maybe but this is different) so I'm looking forward to a new experience. Going to have to visit all the temples and shrines I didn't have the chance to visit before as well.

Such a beautiful place. Leave it to Nagano Prefecture to have yet another amazing sightseeing destination surrounded by beautiful scenery. Watching the video felt so calming. It's such a serene atmosphere and feels completely detached from the rest of the world. It makes me imagine an earth where humanity no longer exists and everything is being reclaimed by the earth. I like how there's several different shrines in the area. The gate Zuijinmon just feels like it's a boundary between worlds too; very surreal. The massive trees reminded me of the redwoods back when I visited the redwood forest in California. I'd really love to explore this area and find some hidden views. I wonder if it's changed much in the 8 years since this video was taken.

Morning at Niikurayama Sengen Shrine. Mt. Fuji enters the torii gate, and the scenery is very magnificent.

New Year ? of Japan First visit ⛩

Looking at this picture I realized I've never actually seen fireworks in the snow. I've done them for New Years of course, but living in Tokyo it doesn't snow much. Also where I was from the in the US we didn't get a lot of snow either. This looks like a lot of fun though. I didn't get to do fireworks this New Years but I was able to have a lot of fun still. Ate some great food with some great people and had fun playing games together. I've visited Aomori a few times in the past though and it was a lot of fun so maybe next year I'll head out there and enjoy these fireworks for New Years! Either way, this Kabushima Shrine looks really beautiful on top of the hill. The path leading up to the shrine and the torii gates are really neat. I looked it up a little more and it looks like a lot of seagulls gather at the shrine as well. Makes sense since it's right next to the beach. Really awesome!

Went to Inokashira Onshi Park over the weekend and it was really beautiful. The leaves were all different colors and we were able to get some really tasty food nearby

The shrine ?⛩ that has begun to change leaves is too pleasant, and when I walked barefoot through the fallen leaves, the ground was warm ? even though it was November.

In the fallen leaves, the shadow is getting longer

There are many arquebus guns in the Japan. However, the shape of the gun is different for each area, so it is interesting to see various museums and demonstration groups. Guns also have fine patterns and inlays, and some of them are beautiful works of art.

The underwater torii gate of Hakone Shrine on Lake Ashi is called the "Torii of Peace". The torii gate floating in the mist is even more fantastic.
