YouTube videos of Kyoto & Nara temples and shrines visit

We published our Tokyo/Japan Explore spots YouTube videos, about “Kyoto & Nara trip”.

There are 8 videos about Kyoto & Nara temples and shrines visit.

They are about visiting not well known popular tourist spots (some are famous already though), but more meaningful and powerful power spots.

By visiting those places, we Japanese believe we can connect to our guardians and will get better luck.

During my visit there, I had great opportunities to dedicate my RYU dragon kakejiku to Oomiwa shrine in Nara, and to Kifune shrine in Kyoto.

We hope these videos will give you some ideas of places to visit when you come to Japan!

I had a grateful opportunity to dedicate my RYU painting kakejiku to RYU temple.

With the early morning prayer by the head priest, and meditation, I had a precious moment at the temple.

It is such an honor to be able to dedicate my RYUJIN painting to the temple that has deep connections with RYUJIN.

Thank you so much.

I love to make cherry blossom themed artworks, so I wanted to hold my solo exhibition during the cherry blossom season.  I am really grateful that I could hold my first solo exhibition in a nostalgic Japanese old house near Meguro river, Tokyo, where cherry blossoms are really famous.  This exhibition is already one of my best memories.
