Stone Lantern, Yakuoji Temple

Posted by Daryl Johnson (Farnham, United Kingdom) on 14 January 2008 in Lifestyle & Culture and Portfolio.

Coins are left on the lantern to bring good luck.

Although I'm now in England, this blog will still feature photos from Japan for the foreseeable future.

I apologise in advance if I'm tardy with commenting on your blogs or returning comments during the week... I will get to you though!
