Hida Kokubun-ji

Dear Friends

get up early, let me peacefully discover Takayama. It is a modern city with old micro shrines and temples everywhere (see the images) which betray the deep fidelity of the japaneses to the traditional religions. Unexpected, because not specifically sought, Hida_Kokubun-ji attracted me. Open although desert, it disclosed aspects of its glorious and millennial history, letting me still time for a restorative bath at the outdoor Onsen on the roof of my Ryokan, before a hearty japanese breakfast.
