Japan: Kitano Tenmangu Shrine in Kyoto (8/10) 2012-02-25(Sat)1331hrs
The annual Baikasai (Ume Blossom Festival) in the drizzle complete with Nodaté outdoor tea party. Ume, or Prunus mume is commonly known in the West as Chinese plum or Japanese apricot. Its blossoms resemble those of sakura, or Prunus serrulata (Japanese fruitless cherry). Ume, unlike sakura, produces fruits that are lethal when eaten raw as they are poisoned with natural potassium cyanide; but its pickled and sun-dried fruit (ume boshi) is perfectly all right and even good for the health.

滋賀県大津市にあり、源氏物語の草案がなされたことでも有名な石山寺に参拝してきました。
境内は大変広く、様々な四季の花であふれている素晴らしいお寺でした。
また懸造りの木造建築としては最古で、国宝に指定されている本堂や、源頼朝が寄進した五重塔（国宝）、国の天然記念物に指定されている「けい灰石」の大きな岩盤など見どころも満載の訪れる価値のある場所だと感じました。

Mangetsuji Temple with famous Ukimido (Floating Temple) Hall, Katata Ward, Shiga Prefecture
Mangetsuji Temple is a zen temple located in Katata Ward of Shiga Prefecture (Kansai Region) in Japan. Mangetsuji Temple is known for the Ukimido Hall which is built on the shores of lake Biwa (Biwa-ko) on the water. When the water is full this hall seems like floating on the water.
Mangetsuji is a small temple but the gorgeous views of the Lake Biwa and it's surroundings makes it a very popular temple to visit in Shiga Prefecture. The Ukimido is said to house about 1000 Amida Buddha statues in a small space.
The beautiful views of Shiga Prefecture and Lake Biwa, were subject to eight paintings to the famous Ukiyo-e Painter of Japan, Hiroshige. These paintings are known as Eights Views of Omi. Omi being the ancient name for Shiga Prefecture. One of the paints features the Geese returning home on Lake Biwa with the Ukimido Hall in the background. It is a beautiful painting along with the other seven views of Omi.
