Fallen Camellia

I found this fallen camellia flower in the woods of Enryakuji Temple. This flower lying on the ground always makes me think of death.

Pagoda in the mountain

This is a pagoda of Enryakuji Temple which comprises uncountable historic monuments in Mount Hiei.

Nature and Temple

Enryakuji Temple is a UNESCO World Heritage site and said to be one of the most important temples in Japan. Although most Kyoto temples are in/around the city Enryakuji is located just around the top of Mount Hiei.
