While passing by Kaneiji Temple, I noticed that the temple's architecture had a quaint, traditional Japanese feel, so I took a photo as a keepsake. Although I hadn't specifically planned to go inside this time, it was still charming to come across it by chance.
Sometimes that's how traveling is. Places you didn't plan to visit can turn out to be pleasant little surprises when you happen to pass by.

Kouri Beach in Okinawa caught my eye at first sight with its ocean view! The water is a beautiful blue and so clear that you can see beneath the surface. The entire ocean looks incredibly clean and crystal clear.
Standing by the shore with the sea breeze blowing and looking out over the endless blue water made me feel completely relaxed. As the sunlight shines on the water, it takes on different shades of blue depending on the angle. It’s really beautiful.
