Joukouji 定光寺 is in Seto, Japan 瀬戸, which is just north of where I live. Even so, it still took me almost a good hour to get to this area.

I first arrived at Joukouji Park 定光寺公園, and took in the sights there.

Seriously, these fall leaves are beautiful. Cycling around Japan this time of year is by far the best in my opinion.

The temple is at the top of a mountain near this park, so there was one last little climb to get there before I could relax. I rewarded myself with one of my favorite Japanese snacks, gohei mochi 五平餅, which is a miso covered grilled rice stick (if that makes sense at all).

I then made my way to the temple, where I was photobombed by a monk while talking to the camera haha.

All in all, it was a beautiful day of autumn cycling in Japan, and the video turned out great. Make sure to check out the vlog for today to see even more beautiful sights around Joukouji Temple 定光寺.
