Higashiyoshino snow-covered landscape

It is a wallpaper photograph of the snow-covered landscape of winter of Nara Higashiyoshino.
Snow coverage still remained in the national highway No. 166 line Ise highway
which goes to Higashiyoshino considerably on the road.

From Higashi-Yoshino-mura, Yoshino-gun, Nara-ken A border between prefectures is crossed. The national highway No. 166 line which goes in the direction of the Mie Matsusaka city is also called the Ise highway, and raises altitude rapidly toward a Takami peak. It was also a difficult part of the national highway No. 166 line maximum to pass the Takami peak of the Ise highway once. Although the old national highway No. 166 line which results to a Takami peak with an altitude of 899m is being crowded also with the winter season as it is as the shortest route of Takami mountain mountain climbing now, if it goes in the previous direction of Mie from there, there is also no car which almost runs, and even snow removal is not carried out. Road width has only the road width that it is very narrow and passing by an oncoming car is as hard as possible. It seems that and a winter season is calm, it becomes the snow coverage of 10cm or more in many cases, and traffic stop was also occurring frequently. It is the way which was once called the south highway to Suzuka-toge (national highway No. 1 line), and was crowded with the pilgrimage to Ise or the daimyo's alternate-year residence in Edo of the Edo period. It is said that it is Showa 23 years that the present Takami peak was opened for traffic. But there is no change in the ascent exceeding the Sugitani tunnel being a very severe way. It is Mie Prefecture from this Higashiyoshino now. Even if the Takami tunnel which passes through the bottom of a Takami peak was opened for traffic in Showa 59 and did not pass a steep Takami peak, it could pass along the route exceeding a border between prefectures. However, there is no change in this national highway that runs the north of a stand Takayama pulse being a way with much snow coverage so that the Takami mountain which is in along this national highway too may be called the famous place of a western-part-of-Japan leading fog deposit. Although carried out to preliminary inspection for the purpose of Takami mountain mountain climbing, Takami mountain mountain climbing was given up to the badness of too much field of view, and was changed to photography of the snow-covered landscape of Higashiyoshino this time at it. Since [ of a Takami peak ] there was snow coverage from this side and the hit in Ouda far, although the snow is removed from this national highway, a chain or studless one are already an indispensable road this time also.
