A clear view of snowcapped Mt. Fuji having
gray clouds in lower quarter in tow seemed to have topped among various nice sceneries
for our guests from Thailand, a female researcher of a PhD in Biochemistry, her
mother and her aunt.
The view expanded even more when we moved
from the summit of Mt. Takao to Momijidai reachable by further 10 minutes
walking.
Of course, autumn foliage was in its best with
sunshine and without much trouble thanks to early start before 8:00 in such a
busy season.
At the temple, we showed some examples of
syncretism of Buddhism and Shintoism, as they already visited Sensoji at
Asakusa and Meiji Shrine during this stay, and animated phase of this temple
contrasted well with conservative temples in Kyoto they are going to visit.
We never failed to visit a stupa where kept
inside are remains of Buddha, given by the King of Thailand in 1930.
Nancy and I also enjoyed the hiking on such
a fine day similarly to our guests who were to drive to Lake Kawaguchi located
at a foot of Mt. Fuji in the afternoon.
So, I’m sure the scenery of Mt. Fuji in the
morning must have been a good appetizer.
