AUTUMN LEAVES IN NORTH EAST JAPAN.

We went to North East Japan for 3 day trip. I borrowed a rent-a-car near Shinjo ralroad station and returned it near Sendai railroad station.. Then we went to Naruko Kyo gorge.

山形新幹線の新庄駅近くでレンタカーを借りて、仙台で返しました。

Oh-Hukazawa Bridge.　大深沢橋です。（鳴子峡谷）

We went to at the bottom of this gorge.

We could see a tunnel for local railroad line.

The surface of the river reflected the Sunshine.

We stayed a hotel at the Ginzan Onsen hot spring area.

There are many classical hotels.

Next day, we went to Yamadera temple.

Crossing a ridge, on the way to Yamadera,we could see a sea of clouds.

Yamadera area.　山寺、立石寺です。

Godaido building,almost on the top of the temple.　五大堂です。

The main building of the temple.　根本中堂です。

The entrance to the top of this mountain.

From here, stairs more than 1,000 steps spread out to the mountaintop.

Near here,The poet Basho composed a famous Haiku.

     Deep silence, the shrill of cicadas, seeps into rocks

閑さや　岩に侵み入る　蝉の声　芭蕉。

Closing up.
