Description

If you've ever strolled through Kyoto’s Gion district, perhaps down the Hōkan-ji walkway, you know the magic of this place. For us, it was an early spring morning, just as dawn painted the quiet streets with soft, golden light. We wandered, entirely alone, our footsteps the only sound as we took in the untouched beauty of the empty alley. There was a fresh chill in the air, tinged with the earthy scent of morning dew and a hint of cherry blossoms, their fragrance lingering like a sweet whisper.
