    長谷寺から室生寺まで車で行かれたのですか。山の上の寺で歩くのが大変そうで行ったことないのですが、美しい寺ですね。3月末に私が氷室神社に行ったときは、ようやく枝垂れ桜が咲き始めたところでした。ホテルからの荒池のお写真素敵です！！！良い週末を！

    奈良県の桜巡り満喫されたようですね。長谷寺は春牡丹と寒牡丹の時期のみ行きました。なるほど桜の時期はこうなんですね。室生寺の塔は可愛くて好き、比較的小さいのですが階段の下から見上げると堂々としています。荒池からの興福寺の眺め、同じような構図で撮りました。桜と塔を一緒にいれたいですよね。次の山野辺の道も楽しみにしています。

      こんばんは。ありがとうございます。吉野山に桜を身に行く予定でしたが、咲いていないのであきらめました。前回行ったときは盛りを過ぎていたので、今回は少し早めと思いましたが早すぎました。
      おかげで長谷寺を楽しむ事が出来ました。

    Those "wild" deer look quite tame!

    Wow! You just shared very beautiful photos of Nara with lots of Sakura blooms everywhere. I will visit Nara again someday as my last visit was just a quick day trip only. That place is so relaxing with so many friendly deers roaming all over the streets. The motorists were so kind to slow down their vehicles to allow the deers to cross the streets!

    I knew that I missed many exciting places which you have shared. Thank you Minoru-San.

    So beautiful! I wish I can take photos like your. The contrast between the cherry blossoms and the color of the temples is great. Like those deer on your last photo. #WordlessWednesday

    And so many cherry trees, lots of varieties of blossoms. We do not have so many types, so, it is so lovely to admire them through your camera lens. Especially in so relaxing places like these ones with ponds, pagoda, winter cherry tree and deers! Lovely views, once again! Many thanks for sharing them with us! Best regards in April!
