[Kanagawa Prefecture] Hokokuji Temple

I visited this temple, which is famous for its picturesque bamboo forest. I visited the day after it snowed so much that it piled up in the Kanto region, so it was even more picturesque and beautiful. As you often see on social media, the inside of the temple is quite compact. I recommend taking your time and walking around while feeling the clear air. On this day, there was a notice that said, "The bamboo is being protected in preparation for strong winds and heavy snow." Indeed, the bamboo was protected so that it was connected to each other, so I'll visit again when that's not the case. #2022c #Snowscape
