"Wishes" in wood, in a temple near Himeji Castle. A friend which lived in Japan for a long time told me that the wishes are so diverse as people are: for good luck, for a better job, for health and money, for love... everything is OK!

Himeji - The White Heron VI

A detail of Himeji Castle wall. I like the contrast between the tree's green and the stones' grey.

Himeji - The White Heron IV

Well, here is Himeji Castle again, seen from another perspective, proudly standing at the top of a small hill. Also known as "White Heron", the largest feudal castle in Japan remains undamaged since its inauguration, in 1610. Its main tower is about 151 feet high. I've visited some fine castles and palaces in Europe and China before, but this one is my favorite, for sure.
