Snow Kifune Shrine. The red lanterns shine against the snow.
It takes about 30 minutes to walk along a snowy road from the nearest station, but it is a place you should definitely visit on a snowy day.
It is lit up only on snowy days at night, so I would like to go there once.

It is Kiyomizu-dera Temple early in the morning during the autumn foliage season, just after the gate opens.
In the dignified atmosphere and clear air, the autumn leaves seen from the stage of Shimizu are a masterpiece.

I went there because the Byodo-in Phoenix Hall, a World Heritage Site, is lit up at night for a limited number of days. There was no wind and the reflection was very beautiful. It was built with the Pure Land of Paradise in mind, so it was truly a superb view.

Thank you for posting a very beautiful photo.
Cool Japan Video also publishes articles about the Byodo-in Phoenix Hall.
Please also see here if you like.

Located in Uji City, Kyoto Prefecture, the World Heritage Byodo-in Phoenix Hall is an Amida hall built in the first year of Tenki (1053).
In autumn, it is lit up with the autumn leaves, and you can enjoy an even more beautiful appearance.
When sightseeing in Uji in Kyoto, you will be pleased to buy a red seal as a souvenir.
There are many sightseeing spots such as Ujikami Shrine in the surrounding area.

Byodoin Phoenix Hall and Ujigami Shrine, both World Heritage sites in Uji City, Kyoto Prefecture, are venerable Shinto shrines and Buddhist temples that attract people from all over the world. The beautiful scenery that gives you a sense of Japan's history is intoxicating.

It snowed on New Year's Day 2022, so I went to Kinkakuji Temple at the same time as the gate opened.
Snow clouds covered the sky until just before the gate opened, but it was clear just before the gate opened, and I was able to see the snow-covered Kinkakuji Temple under the blue sky. It's a truly spectacular view!

Shooting location: Ipponzakura at Koiwai Farm, Iwate Prefecture
The single cherry tree in the vast meadow has an overwhelming presence.
This area is in full bloom in early May, but there is still snow on Mt. Iwate that towers in the back, and the contrast between the green grass and the cherry blossoms, the snow and the blue sky, is truly superb.
