On a snowy day in early January this year, I ventured out to take some photos of winter scenery and visited Taichoji Temple in Fukui. There, not only the temple but also the entire landscape was covered in snow and it looked almost divine. Here are some photos I took on this day around the temple. Unfortunately, it was raining and snowing sporadically, so I couldn't capture the mystical beauty of it very well. But if you come to Fukui in winter, you can enjoy the divine beauty of mountains anytime you like!
