I was able to take Sunday off for the first time in a long time, so I went to Himeji Castle, a World Heritage Site. There was an event called "Kagamihana Suigetsu", and I waited for about 50 minutes for a long line in the strong wind, and the water swayed in the wind so much that Himeji Castle could not be photographed, and the use of a tripod monopod was prohibited, and the shooting time was only 4 minutes, so it was a dense shoot, so it was not very picturesque, but somehow I did my best with a camera from a long time ago and waited 😅 for the timing when the wind stopped. Even in such a situation, I wonder if you can easily shoot with today's high-performance mirrorless ... 😌

Introducing the photos posted on "Minna no Post"! This is a pickup post on the inbound tourism information SNS "COOL JAPAN VIDEOS". Today, I would like to introduce "Nguyen Vu" post "Night view of Byodo-in Phoenix Hall". The contrast between light and shadow of the Byodo-in Phoenix Hall is impressive. Located in Uji City, Kyoto Prefecture, Byodoin Phoenix Hall is one of the World Heritage Sites of Ancient Kyoto. It is also famous for being depicted on a Japanese 10-yen coin. The history of Byodo-in Temple dates back to the first year of Tenki 1053. It was built by Sekihaku Fujiwara Yorimichi at the time, and the following year the Phoenix Hall was built as the Amida Hall, a Buddhist hall with Amitabha Buddha as its main deity. The name Phoenix Hall comes from the fact that when viewed from the front, it looks like a bird with outstretched wings, and a golden phoenix is attached to the roof. The biggest feature of Phoenix Hall is that it is built in a style that looks as if it is floating in a pond Aji Pond. On clear days, the superb view of the phoenix hall reflected in the pond is also popular as a photo spot. We recommend shooting in the morning when it is in good light or in the background of the sunset. The grounds are full of attractions, such as the garden, which has been designated as a national historic site and place of scenic beauty, and the Brahma bell. ◆Byodo-in Phoenix Hall◆ 【Address】〒611-0021 116 Uji Renka, Uji City, Kyoto Prefecture 【Access】 JR Nara Line About 10 minutes walk from Uji Station Keihan Uji Line About 10 minutes on foot from Uji Station 【Opening Hours】8:30~17:30Reception closes at 17:15 【Inside the Phoenix Hall】9:30~16:30 Capacity of 50 people each time Please check the official website for details.

Shiga Prefecture's "Shirahige Shrine"
As the sun went down, I felt very strange at the sunset and the torii gate floating on the lake. I was deeply moved that there is such a fantastic thing in Shiga Prefecture.

Introducing the photos posted on "Everyone's Post"! This is a pickup post of the inbound tourism information SNS "Cool Japan Video". Today, I would like to introduce "Kafe" post "Kifune Shrine in Kyoto". The contrast between the rows of vermilion lanterns and the green is impressive. "Kifune Shrine" is an old shrine rich in nature located in Kyoto City, Kyoto Prefecture, Kansai region. It has the benefits of wish fulfillment and matchmaking, and is a popular tourist spot as one of Kyoto's leading power spots. You can also enjoy the superb scenery of the four seasons, such as the autumn leaves of the main shrine and the fantastic lanterns and snowy scenery lining the approach. The annual festival "Kifune Matsuri", which is known as a summer tradition, is an event that is crowded with Shinto rituals, mikoshi pilgrimages, and invitational mochi sprinkling. The powerful Izumo Kagura is also one of the highlights. Except for Shinto rituals, general worshippers can also participate. The fortune draw of Kifune Shrine, which enshrines the god of water, has a unique reputation for its "water fortune telling" in which letters appear when floating on the sacred water. In addition, there are two types of red seals, "Kifune Shrine" and "Okumiya", and the red seal of Kifune Shrine can be written directly by the head of the Goshuin, but the red seal of the Okumiya is only written down. ◆Kifune Shrine◆ 【Access】 ・Car About 40 minutes north of Kyoto Station about 18 km About 50 minutes north of Meishin Expressway Higashi IC about 20km 【Access from Kyoto Station】 ・ Train transfer + bus Time required: about 1 hour Transfer → Kyoto Station to Tofukuji Station on the JR Nara Line→ transfer to Demachiyanagi Station on the Keihan Main Line and Ohto Line→ get off at Kifuneguchi Station on the Eizan Railway Kurama Line, and walk from Kyoto Bus "Kifuneguchi Ekimae" bus stop → "Kifune" bus stop. ・Subway + Bus Time required: about 1 hour Transfer to Kokusaikaikan Station on the Karasuma Line → Kyoto Station→ get off at Kifuneguchi bus stop on the Kyoto Bus bound for Kifuneguchi and Kurama, and walk from Kifuneguchi Ekimae Bus Stop → Kifune Bus Stop.

Introducing the photos posted on "Everyone's Post"! This is today's inbound tourism information SNS "Cool Japan Video" pick-up post. Here is a post by "puzzlumi". Autumn leaves at "Hoyama Shrine" in Kyoto Prefecture The pink leaves at the beginning of autumn are cute and beautiful. Kuwayama Shrine in Kameoka City, Kyoto Prefecture is a shrine dedicated to the god who created the country of Tamba. The shrine and precincts are known as famous spots for autumn leaves. The autumn leaves are in full bloom from early to late November every year, and can be seen almost throughout the shrine. About 1,000 maples are colored, and the vermilion torii gate and autumn leaves are recommended photo spots. Since Omi Takajin, the deity of Hoyama Shrine, is the deity of Izumo Taisha Shrine and the main god of the great kingdom, it is said that there are benefits of marriage and marital harmony, and that the "Ansanishi" of the rock fragment dug when the Amaokayama Tunnel in the precincts is penetrated leads to the opening of the "birth canal" and is said to have the benefit of safe childbirth. In the precincts, rabbits that are said to be messengers of the gods are drawn everywhere such as stone lanterns, and one of the ways to enjoy visiting the precincts while finding hidden rabbits is to enjoy them. The visiting time of Hozan Shrine is about 40 minutes. To get there, get off at Kameoka Station on the JR Sagano Line Sanin Line. Get off at the community bus "Hoyama Jinja-mae".

Introducing the photos posted on "Everyone's Post"! Today's inbound tourism information SNS "Cool Japan Video" pickup post Here is a post by "HIKARINOATORIE". Metasequoia trees in Takashima City, Shiga Prefecture The symmetrical rows of autumn leaves are a superb view and an impressive photo. A row of metasequoia trees stretches for about 2.4 km from the agricultural park Makino Pick Land to the Makino Plateau. About 500 cypress metasequoias are planted on both sides of the road, and it is a popular tourist spot that has been selected as one of the 100 New Japan Street Tree Views. Metasequoia trees have many attractions throughout the four seasons, such as budding and fresh green in spring, deep green in summer, autumn leaves, and bare trees and snow flowers in winter, but the autumn leaves, which are said to be the best season, have been selected as one of the "100 best spots for Japan autumn leaves". The best time to see them is from early November to late November. It is beautiful to watch from inside the car, but it is also recommended to walk and enjoy it slowly. There is also a "Namiki Cafe" nearby where you can overlook the Metasequoia Avenue, so why not use it for a break? Access is a 20-minute taxi ride from Makino Station on the JR Kosei Line, or just get off at Makino Pick Land Bus Stop on the Makinohara Kogen City Line. If you are arriving by car, you can park the free parking lot at "Makino Pick Land".

Beautiful scenery of Kyoto, an ancient capital with a history of more than 1,200 years It is a piece that feels the dignified atmosphere of the historic capital. The ancient capital of Kyoto has many World Heritage Sites, historic traditional buildings, and nostalgic townscapes. Many tourist attractions such as Fushimi Inari Taisha Shrine, Amanohashidate, Kiyomizu-dera Temple, Toji Temple, Kinkakuji Temple, and Shimogamo Shrine are popular with tourists both in Japan and overseas. Kyoto, which can be enjoyed throughout the four seasons, is also popular as the most popular spot for autumn leaves in Japan. From mid-November to early December, you can enjoy the beautiful sight of Japanese maples and maples turning red and yellow. In addition to the autumn leaves, the hot springs are also one of the attractions. At Amanohashidate Onsen, you can enjoy hot springs that are popular as "hot springs for beauty", and at the ryokan of the hot spring village "Yunohana Onsen" in Kameoka City, you can also taste the taste of Tamba such as ayu, matsutake, and botan nabe.

At night, the streets are illuminated, creating a mysterious atmosphere that is different from the daytime.

Akashi Bridge and morning fog pursued for many years From around March to May, the Akashi Bridge was covered with fog and created a fantastic scene, and even though I lived in the local area, the timing was not right due to work, and the fog disappeared when I arrived, so I couldn't take a picture, but I was impressed that I was able to shoot it only once. There is Asagiri Station nearby, and the sea around here is foggy in the morning, so the morning mist 😯 is so great that it is morning fog.
