Kyoto 京都












京都の日常。




Filmed over a week in Kyoto and its surrounding areas. I've been to Kyoto many times before and always wanted to capture the beauty of its atmosphere. The place has an mysterious feeling, with ancient temples and tranquil forests. 

Scenes include the Golden Pavilion Temple, Fushimi Inari, Kiyomizu Temple, Gion, Ryoanji, Todaiji, and Arashiyama. We also made trips out to nearby Osaka, Nara, and Koyasan. Especially in the winter, the snow was beautiful in the Mount Koya world-heritage.

IMPERIAL BONSAI in JAPAN  皇室の盆栽 (解説付き)
























皇居には大道庭園と呼ばれる盆栽仕立て場があり、約90種、600点の盆栽があるそうです。
樹齢数100年という名品も多く、中には樹齢550年というものまである。

皇居の盆栽の特徴は3つ。
・大型盆栽の多さ
・人工的技術を抑えた自然重視の形づくり
・樹齢100年を超す年代物ぞろいという点。
これらが現代的盆栽とはひと味違う圧倒的な品格を醸し出す理由とされ、多くの愛好者の憧れ。

歴史ある盆栽をこうして目にすことができることをとても嬉しく思います。
