A trip to west Japan.

We went to Hyogo and Kyoto prefectute.



Himeji castle.



The most famous castle in our country.


Zooming up.


Autumn leaves.


Then, we visited Takeda ruined castle.





This ruined castle is very popular for castle favorite people.


Then we went to Ankokuzenji Temple.



This Doudantutuji is about 150 tree age.



Very small Doudantutuji in this precincts.


Last day,we visited Kasamatu park to see Amanohashidate.



Then got on Kyo-Tango dining car railway.
Eating lunch, we looked the views of Japan Sea.

    I remember visiting this Himeiji Castle the moment it reopened after years of refurbishing. It looks very big and impressive inside for being the biggest castle in Japan.

    Where is the Takeda Castle ruins located? Thank you Minoru-San.

    Such lovely collection of photos, Minoru.

    We can't wait to visit Japan again next week, and enjoy the autumn colour in Fuji, Karuizawa and Izu. :)

    How amazing to point your camera at something as magnificent as that castle! And then to see the ruins of one and the beautiful views...makes you happy to be a photographer! A place I'll never get to visit so I thank you for the photos.

    The ruined castle must have been quite majestic in its day. It's a great location from which to see friends and foe coming and also provides a fantastic view.
