Mitarai water fall in Tenkawa village / 天川村みたらい渓谷




























I have muscle pain because of this short trip to Mitarai water fall in Tenkawa village. Tenkawa village is located in southern Nara and it took more than 3 hours from Kyoto station.

I took off at Tenkawa kawaai → 3 hours hiking through deep forest → Dogawa On-sen (hot spring)

Eating noddles and taking a bath after hiking was great. Leaves were still bright green and reflecting of sunshine was so beautiful.
The way from the bus stop to Dogawa On-sen had many up-downs than I expected. And that caused muscle pain today (especially my upper back Why?).


昨日、奈良県天川村のみたらい渓谷に行ってものすごい筋肉痛です。やばい。

天川川合下車 → 遊歩道という名のあんま舗装されてない道3時間 → 洞川温泉

ハイキングの後のうどんと温泉が最高でした。だしが沁みた。木々がまだ割と黄緑できれいで良かったです。
ただ、思ってたより道が険しくて、筋肉痛がひどい。特に肩とか。なんで肩なんやろう…ふつう足ちゃう?

Enryaku-ji in Mount Hiei / 比叡山延暦寺




















Today, I enjoyed a short trip to Enryaku-ji in Mt Hiei.

Demachiyanagi station → took Eizan railway → Yase (the gate of Mt Hiei) → took a cable car → The top of Mt Hiei → took 30 min walk → Enryaku-ji

It was foggy, so many of these pictures are whitened. The fog was so deep and I felt my skin moisturized. I've tried to keep this condition. Mt Hiei is known for having Enryaku-ji. Enryaku-ji has a long history more than 1200 years. Enryaku-ji was opened by Saicho to train priests, and it is one of the greatest Buddhism places. So Enryaku-ji is located in deep mountain to keep priests away from society.
You can enjoy the way to deep forest and beautiful combination of nature and Japanese old architecture.
In total, I walked more than 3 hours. In the end it was hard for me to move my legs. I'm planning Mt Hiei trail in winter to take beautiful picture. I have to get myself trained to achieve this plan. Mt trail has about 10 km!


濃霧の中比叡山延暦寺に行きました。ほんますごかった。場所によっては10m先は見えないぐらい。

出町柳→叡山電鉄→八瀬→ケーブルカー→比叡山山頂→徒歩30分→延暦寺

霧が本当にすごくて肌の調子めっちゃ良くなった。結局3時間ぐらい歩いたけど最後のほう足ガクガクになってしまった。来年ひっこすまでに比叡山の登山ルート攻略して冬のきれいな写真撮りたいんやけど難しいかなあ。5時間かかるらしいし。

Take a night walk


It has been more than a week since my sister flight to Hokkaido. So I'm alone in my apartment room until she'll be back. I lost a person who I can talk to at home.
Two days ago, it was too hot to stay home, and I rode my bicycle to central Kyoto City and took a walk around Karasume street to get an iced coffee (I've spent too much money on iced coffee recently). But I changed my mind when I stood in front of Star Bucks. Finally, I got an ice cream at Seven Eleven.


妹が北海道に行ってしまったので夜ひとりでさみしいです。ひまやし。なんかおもろいことあっても話す人おらんし。
しかも毎日暑い。夜も全然暑くて、ここ数週間でスタバのアイスコーヒーにいくら費やしたかわからん。おとといも自転車でスタバまで行ったけど、結局セブイレのアイスになった。今も買いに行くか悩んでる。
