Cover photo: Sanzen-in Temple is the main attraction in Ohara, a lovely village just north of Kyoto known for its proud maintenance of tradition. This historical, serene and spiritual temple is worth a visit in any season. The path through the grounds meanders around small halls with ancient histories and through moss gardens dotted with smiling little jizo statues, making for an enjoyable and relaxing trip.
