The way to Gapsa, The Most Beautiful Way in Autumn.

20171203

It was said that ‘ Gapsa in Autumn and Magoksa in Spring’ is the most beautiful temple in Korea.
I had visited Gapsa with my mom in this Spring.
So I had visited Gapsa Temple with my colleagues for several days ago.
I’d like to look at the essence of that temple.

It was late autumn when we arrived at Gapsa.
I was in raptures when I began to enter into the temple.
Of course scenery in Spring was so beautiful. At that time my mom adored the scenery of Gapsa.

But Gapsa in Autumn was quite different from that of Spring.
From the way to the entrance, the scenery made me very emotional.

The way to the temple was made us lonely.
The loneliness was the essence of the Autumn.

The oldmen I saw on the road.
The oldmen and Autumn were suited to the situation.
The oldmen reminded me of my father who had passed away 3 years ago.
As seeing them, I would’ve cried.
Oh my daddy….
I know he always had proud of me as I have proud of my son.

In Some place, we found the splendid spectacular maple tree leaves. Almost the leaves were fallen on the ground. So the ground was turned into the red color.
As with time passing, the red colors lost it’s original vividness.

But it seemed that the faded color suited the situation.
