Kyoto life Blogs

GTK would like to introduce the real Kyoto life by GTK bloggers. Some of them migrated from their countries
to Kyoto, and want to share how to enjoy the Kyoto life. These blogs are quite useful for visiting Kyoto, and also
for people who hope to live in Japan.

Japanese purple beauty!

  • May 10-2010
  • Chikako Takemoto
  • Kyoto

Look at this photo! so Beautiful!

This flower is named Kakitsubata irises, and is the best season now. The combination of purple blue and green is a feast for the eyes! It was a beautiful afternoon yesterday at Ota Shrine.

This is a main hall of Ota Shrine. It’s rustic and feel sacred.

I could listen to the fogs’ songs. Nice atmosphere..

You can go up the small mountain from the side array of the main hall. I enjoyed the petit trekking!
Ota Shrine is located close to Kamigamo Shrine in the northern part of Kyoto city.
You can visit easily from downtown along the Kamogawa riverbank by bicycle.

出町柳より自転車で約20分、カキツバタを見に大田神社まで行ってきました。こんなに美しい群生は初めて見ました。ブルーや青みがかったパープルが元々大好きです。遠くから見ると、薄紫色のチョウチョの大群が舞ってるように見えます、幻想的です!本殿の脇道を上がって行くと、大田の小径という名で、プチトレッキングを楽しむ事が出来ます。なんという山かはわかりませんが、頂上から見た市内の景色はなかなかのものでした。この辺に住むのもいいですね。。
