Lately, I’ve become a morning person and I see the sunrise 🌅 when the weather is clear. It gives me such a calming feeling and makes me think I’ve achieved something 😆 I used to have a hard time waking up, but now I usually wake up around 5 or 6 am 😆

📍 This shot was taken from EINOO TSURUGI SHRINE, KUMAMOTO. It is said that this place had one of the picturesque sunsets in Japan 🇯🇵
.
When we went here, I was scared that we won’t be able to see the sunset because the weather was quite bad 😞 HOWEVER, the rain stopped and became a little clear. Although, we didn’t see the sun, because of the clouds, we were able to see this stunning PURPLE sky 💜 I edited this shot using @lightroom to make it more vibrant 💜
.
🕰The best period to visit Einoo Tsurugi Shrine is at the beginning of August.

📝 Make sure to check if it’s low or high tide on the day of your visit. It was quite low time when we went here, so we were able to get closer to the Torii ⛩ HOWEVER, BE CAREFUL!!! It can be quite muddy, so wear heavy-duty shoes 👞 😂 My feet sunk in the mud and I was wearing my Geta sandals (Japanese traditional wooden sandals) Thank goodness it was easy to clean! 😅 Things I do for Insta 😂
.
🚗 Best way to go here is by car, because there are no trains nearby.
