[Nagaokakyo City, Kyoto]🍃 A refreshing winter moment at Yanagidani Kannon Yodo-ji Temple✨

#DomesticTravelRecord

Yanagidani Kannon (Yanagiji Temple) is a temple with a history of about 1200 years located in Nagaokakyo City, Kyoto. Even in the cold season, just walking along the approach to the temple in the crisp air makes you feel like your heart is purified❄️✨

Inside the temple grounds, you are greeted by a "flower water fountain" in the shape of this year's zodiac animal, the snake🐍🌸 The colorful presentation in the cold weather left a lasting impression on me, and I couldn't help but want to take a photo📸✨ And what really blew me away was the huge lantern! Its presence, visible from the approach to the temple, is so unforgettable that you will never forget it once you see it. It further enhances the solemn atmosphere of the entire temple.

This temple, located in the mountains, is attractive not only in winter but also in every season. Especially during the hydrangea and autumn leaves season, the temple is crowded with many visitors, and you can enjoy a different look✨
