Someiyoshino-zakura (Prunus yedoensis) flowers: Engaku-ji

Someiyoshino-zakura (Prunus yedoensis) flowers: Engaku-ji


The full-blown flowers of Sakura are sparkling in the bright spring sun to decorate the quiet slope leading to the Oubai-in (the temple of winter jasmine).

The young leaves and small red flowers of maple trees, which seem to be small golden fleeces hanging in the air, are lending a touch of brilliant color to this view.
