The time has come for every person within the Japanese border to call there friends, grab there cameras and go out on “leaf hunting”. The time of 紅葉 is hereThat’s right, just as i said above it’s the time for leaf hunting! The color changing of the autumn leaves is now at it’s peak, and boy what a sight it is!
It’s incredibly beautiful!
Because of this I’ve been out with friends for two days straight now looking at leaves, and the third day in a row coming up tomorrow. Yesterday i went to some temples and shrines and other nice viewing spots together with Dan, Kalle and a bunch of people of different nationalities. The weather was surprisingly good and it almost felt like summer again during the most of the day!
Today i went a bit further, the other side of Kyoto, to a place called 嵐山/Arashiyama with some friends from school. The surroundings was probably 10 times more beautiful than on the previous day, but the weather on the other hand was horrible... It started to rain and got cold, so the opportunities to take nice pictures dropped drastically. But in spite of the bad weather it was a great trip and the surroundings was stunning even in the bad weather.
Tomorrow I’ll be heading out to a temple that’s quite famous for it’s superb leaf viewing surroundings. Hopefully the weather will be as nice as yesterday!
A few selections from the first day:
