Taxi Japan!

Posted on April 19, 2008 by Jim Atwood in Flickr Japan | Comments

Taxis are often found lined up along side of the road waiting for customers. In Nagano the taxis literally are in line waiting for the next client as you have to grab a taxi from the head of the line first. The drivers are very good about this and will usher you to the front if necessary. This may not be true in other parts of Japan like Tokyo, but here these guys definitely play fair.

Spiritual Change

Located at Zenkoji, this is a sort of wishing well where people donate money in return for a spiritual wish. On this particular day there was quite a lot of change in the water.

Step Right In!

This is a doorway to one of the many nice Ryokans located around Zenkoji Temple in Nagano Japan. I thought this had a nice, warm, golden feel to it. I like Ryokans or Japanese Inns very much in Japan.

Gateway to Zenkoji Nagano Japan

Posted on December 15, 2007 by Jim Atwood in Flickr Japan | Comments

This is the newly refurbished gateway to Zenkoji, Temple in Nagano City Japan. It was completed less than a month ago for the 2008 New Year Festivities. This year Zenkoji will probably attract more people than usual as the whole area will pretty much be redone by that time.
