花見@京都 （その３）Cherry blossom watching @ Kyoto #3

2015.4.7

雨もほぼあがり、三日目は仁和寺の御室桜に挑戦。去年はまだ咲いていなかったようだが、今年は見頃となっていた。

Rain was almost stopped on the third day, we went to Ninnaji temple to appreciate Omuro sakura.  Since the cherry flowers a little later than usual cherries, it was too early when we visited Kyoto last year.  This year the condition is just perfect.

その後、去年に続いて妙心寺の退蔵院。今年は昼食付きのイベントに参加。

ここの枝垂れ桜は綺麗ねぇ。

After that, we went to Taizoin at Myoshinji again.  This year we joined an event including lunch at the temple.

The weeping cherry here is just different!

帰路、いつも通るだけの山科で毘沙門堂に立ち寄った。京都東のすぐそばなんだねぇ。このお寺はNHKにも出たらしい。
On the way back home we dropped in Bishamondo temple at Yamashina where we usually just pass through.  It was very close to Kyoto east interchange.  The temple was once introduced by NHK TV.
