Hiking at Takatori

Nothing but the smell of moss and trees <3

*_* A Kitsune Shrine


I would love to have a resting place like this...in the middle of the forest...so peaceful!
Such a cutie! I scared him by accident when I stepped on a stick he was resting on

Sometimes being in the presence of statues is more calming than anything else.

Just sitting and listening to "nothing" for awhile, you remember how to breathe more deeply than you usually can in everyday life.

One of the most amazing creepy things I've seen in awhile...individually carved bodies and faces in one huge stone....so awe-inspiring ^.^

Nara will always have a special place in my mind when thinking about beautiful places in Japan...


The variance in art style at this shrine was amazing! These little guys seem to have more of an ancient appeal to them, while the outer "guards" have the more developed look about them.
