Mount Kongo in Osaka is a wonderful place. Where else would be picturesque all year round with cherry blossoms in spring, lusciously green leaves in summer, red maple leaves in autumn and white snow in winter. You also can walk through forests after forests and after a while the silence doesn't frighten you anymore, you are a part of it now.
