These pictures are of a location in the mountains east of Osaka called Shigisan. When the cherry blossoms (sakura) bloom, this is one of the most beautiful places in Japan.

This is me standing next to the sign for the restaurant where we ate lunch.

This is a billboard type map of Shigisan. They are quite common at tourist sites.
