Long day out today. Figured I'd check everyone's posts before bed and wow! I'd not heard of Mt. Yoshino, although I can see why Toyotomi Hideyoshi would have loved it. The scenery is truly beautiful here. I can't even imagine how beautiful the cherry blossoms must be if they're even more amazing than the snowy landscape in this photo. I suppose Kinpusenji Temple is the large building just to the right of the center of the photo. I'd love to give it a visit. It's Nara too, so hopefully I can see some deer during my visit. If not then I'll just have to stop by the park to watch people being chased for their crackers? Lovely place though, I'm interested in seeing what it looks like in Autumn as well. Japan never ceases to amaze me with it's colorful foliage so I can imagine Mt. Yoshino is no exception either!

Mt. Yoshino is said to have been loved by Hideyoshi Daiko.
Mt. Yoshino is famous for its cherry blossoms, but the snowy scenery is also exceptional.
This scenery can be seen several times a year.
The snowy scenery dyed in white silver and the presence of Kinpuzan-ji Temple are irresistible.
