Zen Moments at the Historic Yokokura-ji Temple

While visiting the ancient Ryลkaizan Yokokura-ji Temple yesterday, I had the pleasure of capturing its stunning architecture on camera. The intricate details of the temple stood in perfect harmony with the natural beauty that surrounded it, especially in the late fall.

In moments like these, I find that appreciating beauty often requires silence. It’s as if the world fades away, allowing for a true Zen moment of reflection and admiration.
