@Rikugien Gardens





"One of the greatest moments in anybody's developing experience is when he no longer tries to hide from himself but determines to get acquainted with himself as he really is." ~ Norman Vincent Peale

Our Professor brought us to the Rikugien Gardens to enjoy the autumn koyo that were lit mildly in the night. It was a whole new way of appreciating the beauty of these autumn leaves. The subtle silence of the night made everything that much more serene and comforting.


It would have been perfect if someone recited a poem that reflected the mood of that wonderful evening. ;)

It is impossible to not feel more optimistic about life when one sees such a riot of colors.
I am ready for alot of flowers in my room!
