Snow Buddha

Blizzard makes the world white
It makes the belief clearer.

Zao Onsen is a well known hot spring and ski resort in the mountains of Yamagata Prefecture.
It is one of only a few places in Japan where juhyo or "ice trees" can be seen. Also
known as "snow monsters", the trees take on curious shapes due to the heavy snowfall and
freezing winds.
