Temple at Night – Miyagi

There’s not much photographically worth seeing in these photos, but how often do you get a chance to visit at temple at night? Most (if not all) bigger Japanese temples lock up before nightfall but I was lucky enough to be in Miyagi Prefecture’s Matsushima City when one of the local temples had a small concert and was open to the public even after dark. The music was fine and there was a beautiful long and winding temple garden path to explore. I really wish more temples could be open after dark. Darkness and cameras don’t go too well together, so please forgive the poor quality of these photos!
