It was warm Saturday afternoon.
The image of this peaceful scene was taken on last Saturday at the Ueno Park when I visited the exhibition held in the Tokyo National Museum seen in front in this image. The exhibition was "Enku's Buddhas".
Enku was a Buddhist monk in 17th century, he had traveled on foot all over Japan and carved more than hundred thousands of wooden statues of Buddha.
I enjoyed the appreciation of the Enku's great 60 pieces of work in that exhibition.
