A Very Pleasant Run in Kashihara

On the last day in Nara last week, I had a very nice run in Kashihara.

Beautiful sunrise seen from my hotel window.

Close from my hotel was Mausoleum of Kogen Tenno - the Eighth Emperor of Japan.

There were still some cherry blossoms left.


Little Jizo statues standing by a road.


Old Fujiwara Kyo ruins.

Excavation was on-going there.

Ofusa Kannon Temple - famous for its rose garden.


Mausoleum of Jimmu Tenno - First Emperor of Japan.



A beautiful lake by the shrine.

Nara is a beautiful and peaceful place.  I am so glad I could spend some time there.
