Japan Landscape Photography, Yamadera, The temple in the Sky, Yamagata.
Hōjusan Risshakuji—better known informally as Yamadera, literally “the mountain temple” clings to steep, rocky hillside in eastern Yamagata Prefecture. It was founded in 860 by Jikaku Daishi. It’s a great spot for photography and having just stopped off their quickly in the middle of the day I would love to go back to capture the sunrise.
