Mt. Kagenobu

2011/12/04


Mt. Kagenobu is a mountain situated in Tokyo near mount Takao. This is not that much of  a famous mountain but people who know the area don`t miss it. Unlike mt.Takao, it does not have good trails but some woody unclear mountain trails. A hiker needs a good hold of the foot.

I was out on the hike towards the end of the autumn of 2011, and  a little glimpse of beautiful autumn leaves still could be seen. Below is such one moment.



The capture below is how the greenery is gradually getting ready for the winter. It s beautiful on its own way with the light colour shades. In the distance the concrete world of  Tokyo can be seen.

From now on I am going to share some captures from the top of Mt. Kagenobu.

The Tokyo bay, Tokyo area can be seen over the mountain range from the top of the Mt.Kagenobu

MT. Fuji from the top

Lake Sagami can also be seen


The last capture shows how it Mt. Takao appears to the top of the Mt.Kagenobu.

Well, I had a hard time at the hiking because my foot hold was not good enough but was very enjoyable. Just amazed at how Japanese people spend there time hiking and guess that it is one of their secretes to their healthy life.
Special thanks to my lecturer Mr.Hikone Mamoru , Mr.Saito who was on a vacation from France and Mrs. Sakimoto for taking me with you in this interesting fun hike.

Borobudur - Yogyakarta

2014/05/06 Borobudur is the worlds largest Buddhist temple, hence UNESCO World Heritage Site. We had plans to watch the sunrise at Borbudur over Mount Merapi. So it was an early trip to the temple around 4.30 in the dark by torch light, wait for the sunrise enjoy the view from the top of the temple, have breakfast at Manohara hotel and leave. It was pitch dark in the night, not much moon. The torchlight showed us the way and a silhouette of a temple came in to view when our eyes gradually got used to the dark. With the first rays of sunlight, we saw Mount Merapi. The beautiful but vicious volcano fuming. Loved it! All around the place is covered in mist, so the actual surroundigs are yet to be confirmed. By now the temple, which we  have already climbed and waiting at the  top, is coming in to view. The stupas, carvings and statues gradually emerge. The temple is a symmetrical stupa, consisting of nine stacked platforms: six squar...

Onabe - Japanese Hot Pot

15/05/2010 It was after spending the evening at Thai Festival 2010 in Yoyogi,Shibuya. The dinner was decided on "Nabe" at a shibuya chain restaurant of Japanese hot pot. I have always loved nabe. I have had shabu shabu hotpot, sukiyaki hotpot and seafood hotpot at Japanese houses and this was the first time I am having it at a restaurant. So I thought of sharing some moments of the supreme happiness of eating Nabe - the Japanese hotpot. Beef, eggs and the vegetables  The whole table of ingredients for the Nabe in one shot Shabu shabu and sukiyaki on one hotplate finally you dip the boiled slice of meat in the "tare" and eat. This chain restaurant is in Shibuya and limitless "tabehoudai" for less than 2000yen. Good service and loved the meat.   All Rights Reserved.
