A Temple In Inuyama
We stumbled upon this temple on our walk around Inuyama, its on a hillside near the castle so there is a small climb up to the top. Every step of the stairs leading to the temple is lined with a stone statue of a lion, and sometimes of a lioness and her cub, set on top of a stone plinth. There are still in really good conditions and you can make out the features on their faces. Two masks are erected at the top of the staircase with the multi-coloured flags fluttering in the wind.
The temple itself was pretty but nothing out of the ordinary, but what I like most is the colours of the flag against the temple and mountain backdrop.

thanh, did u take these pics? they're gorgeous!! t
I did indeed! My snazzy new laptops allows me to do some clever things, like downloading pictures from my digital camera! yes, I know that isnt really that impressive but its a new skill I've acquired and I was so chuffed when it worked. So these new pics are taken on my Ixus rather than my camera phone, hence they are clearer and of a much better quality. Glad you like them, darling. Gonna try and post my photo album on a website somewhere and that will give you access to my pictures gallery x
