Hyogo Prefecture Tamba Sasayama City 倶利伽羅不動の滝 The stone statue Fudoson, located in the highest village in the city, is said to have been erected in the 2nd year of the Ming calendar (1656).

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.

The Great Torii (shrine gate) gate of Itsukushima Shrine The Great Torii (shrine gate), which can be said to be the symbol of Itsukushima Shrine, was built in 1168 (Nian 3) with the assistance of Taira Kiyomori, famous for "The Tale of the Heike".

Today in Akasaka, I met up with a friend. This kind of time is precious. This is Bilbokeh's lunch plate. It is a quiche, a pork tart, and a terrine. Bilboquet means kendama in French.

It is ? a view that seems to have gone back in time to [Betsumiya Terraced Rice Fields] in Yabu City, Hyogo Prefecture

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.

Kintai Bridge in Iwakuni City, Yamaguchi Prefecture. I was overwhelmed by the 300 years of history.

[Sagami Kokufu Festival] On May 5th, the "Sagami Kokufu Festival" was held at Mt.

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.

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...

Kiyomizu Temple. It was grander than I imagined and the air was good and pleasant.

Visited the store on May 3, 24. On the occasion of a walk in Kawagoe, I visited LEC Coffee. Black latte and Basque cheesecake. It is very tasty. ?

Inari-san (Inari Inari Daimyojin) in a corner of Hanazono Shrine in Shinjuku, Tokyo. It just so happened that when I was waiting for people at the meeting, a student came to visit. I was seriously praying, but I wonder what I was praying for in the rain Gari

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.

When I visited the Kawagoe Hachimangu Shrine, the Aoi Dancers were demonstrating the shrine.
