Trip to Wakasa-koku Obama

My class had two days trip to Wakasa, a lovely countryside area in 1 hour-bus to the north of Kyoto. I will update with more text soon but in the mean time, let's enjoy these pictures on my trip.

 A quick stop to see Biwa lake

 The castle was completed in 1622 after 20 years of construction

We were lucky to meet a couple having their wedding photos

Our hotel in Biwa lake area, 20 mins far from Mihama nuclear plant which on the next day, we came to visit.
