🏯 A Moment of Serenity at Kōfuku-ji✨

There’s something magical about stumbling upon Kōfuku-ji’s five-story pagoda as the morning mist lifts over Nara. The golden glow of the rising sun hitting the aged wood, the scent of incense mingling with autumn leaves—it stopped me in my tracks. I came chasing that perfect *anime-style* shot—and found so much more. The pagoda stood tall like a scene from a Studio Ghibli film, its tiers framing the last stubborn sakura blossoms clinging to pink against the gloomy sky. #historicallandmarks #nara #japantrip
