Petals and Prayers at Mitake Temple

Tucked in the peaceful hills of Mie, Mitake Temple becomes a sacred symphony of pink during cherry blossom season. As I climbed the stone steps, the air was thick with the scent of sakura and incense. Each petal seemed to carry a whispered prayer. Under the blooming trees, I felt a rare stillness—like nature and spirit were in perfect sync. A hidden hanami haven. #cherryblossom25
