Spring Morning Walk through Historic Higashiyama | Kyoto, Japan 4K

A quiet spring morning walking along Shirakawa River and Canal with sakura cherry blossoms in early bloom. I had intended to focus on the riverside as I thought cherry trees and traditional Japanese buildings would combine nicely with the gently flowing water sounds...but I figured since Gion was right there it might be nice to take a look in the early morning while the streets were quiet and empty. From there it seemed a shame not to walk through Yasaka Shrine and see it's famous weeping cherry tree in bloom. There were a number of stalls sitting idly by waiting for the hanami crowds that I'm sure would soon arrive. There were a number of crows waiting as well. From there I climbed the steps to Chionin Temple, just as the monks began to chant their morning prayer. Eventually I made it back to Shirakawa River, and walked along at water's edge through a quiet neighborhood, past the large torii gate in front of Heian Shrine, up Keage Slope (an old boat ramp connecting the Kyoto - Lake Biwa Canal), and finally along the aqueduct to Nanzenji. When I was thinking about the route, I thought it would take a little over an hour of walking, but with the diversions it ended up being closer to two. I hope you enjoy this extended walk through some beautiful areas of Kyoto just as spring begins. I hope the seasons are treating you well. I've linked the walk below if you're interested .
