Winter Is Here!

It was really freezing in the morning but after the sun rose, we have had the beautiful blue sky! 

The weather in Wakayama is said to be warm and mild, so we seldom see snow but Koyasan.

You can make snowmen as big as you like, make snow angels and of course have some snow fight.

If you are well prepared, mountain trail can be enjoyed for a few hours with about 200-meter-difference of altitude.  

I can tell you how to enjoy Koyasan 200 percent!

SHUSHO-E

SHUSHO-E, the new year's ritual is being held on New Year's Day in Kondo, at GARAN.

With white freezing breath, the ritual is going on in a very serene atmosphere.
