Autumn in Kyoto


We enjoyed the autumn in Kyoto on November 22-24, 2003.
2003年11月22日〜24日に我々は京都の秋を堪能した。

Tofukuji Temple
From the corridor crossing a valley with many maple trees, leaves of various colors were pretty.
東福寺
東福寺の紅葉谷を渡る渡廊下「通天橋」から谷を見下ろせば、色とりどりの木々があった。
Kiyomizu Temple
The stage of Kiyomizu Temple was full of people. The three storied pagoda and colored leaves in the valley were beautiful in the afternoon sunshine.
清水寺
清水寺の舞台は混みあっていた。谷間の紅葉と三重塔が午後の陽に美しかった。
Hodugawa River
In the tranquility of Hodugawa River in an early morning, the colored leaves on the river bank reflected on the mirror surface of the river.
保津川
早朝に静寂の保津川を散歩すれば、岸の紅葉が鏡のように川面に映っていた。
Kurama-yama Mountain
We climbed up Mt. Kurama-yama breathing hard, to see buildings of Kurama Temple among colored maple leaves.
鞍馬山
鞍馬山を喘ぎながら登ると、紅葉に囲まれた鞍馬寺の堂宇があった。
Hogon-in Temple
Hogon-in is an attached temple to Tenryuji Temple, and it has the garden mainly with maple trees which is the most beautiful in the fall.
宝厳院
天竜寺に隣接する宝厳院には楓を主体とした庭があり、秋が最も美しい季節です。
