Cherry Blossom Diary: Tenryu-ji temple, Ninan-ji temple, Hirano Shrine

Tenryu-ji temple is a Rinzai Zen temple located in Saga-Arashiyama, past the Togetsukyo bridge. To  the west is Kameyama park which once belonged to the temple. Beside the main hall, the cherry blossoms were beautiful!


天龍寺は嵯峨嵐山にある臨済宗のお寺名勝嵐山や渡月橋、天龍寺の西側に広がる亀山公園などもかつては境内地だったそうなんです!多宝殿の横に咲いていた桜


After Tenryu-ji temple, we took the randen train to Ninan-ji temple. The temple is also famous for its cherry blossoms, but unfortunately they were not in bloom yet. But also found this cute variety. 
そして嵐電にて揺られながら仁和寺へ。仁和寺は室御桜が有名なんですが。。。まだ蕾でした。。。しかし、境内にはこんなかわいい桜が
From Ninan-ji temple, we took the bus for about 15 minutes to Hirano shrine. There were dozens of food stalls set up for visitors, and it was paradise to look at the flowers while sipping wine. 
今度は市バスに乗って約15分くらいのところにある平野神社出店やお茶屋さんが軒を連ねているんですよ♬熱燗をいただきながらゆっくりお花見酒なんて最高♬
The cherry blossoms this year are again magical in Kyoto. 
京都の春は今年も咲き誇ってます♬
