Frozen in Time
Some things will never change. These pretty carvings certainly fall into that category. We spotted them at the entrance to the breathtakingly beautiful 16th-century palace.

Beautiful carvings. I love birds and have some bird art in my house., which is definitely not a palace.

The detailing on the birds is so good! Japan has been on my wish list for a while now. Need to go there soon.

It is the detailing that caught my eye, Soumya. And yes, Japan will mesmerize you. You’ll fall in love with the breathtaking beauty of the country. And there’s so much more to it.

They resemble sparrows……. love the photo Esha.
Esha MD
Thank you. Glad you like them, Monika.

I think they are meant to portray serenity. Sadly, reminds me of the fact that these days, I almost never see sparrows around.
Esha MD
True, Doc. The sparrows were such a common sight up until a decade or two back.

Awww what lovely birds. Saw some of these in Japan, where they were invariably made to wear crochet hats in winter 🙂

Haha…I’m sure they looked cute with those crochet hats on. 🙂
