Backyard<br> Kyoto picture - Hey everyone! Welcome to Yamanashi Prefecture. This is a view of the mountains right outside my apartment near the outskirts of Kofu City. Literally translated, the kanji characters for Yamanashi mean mountain province. These are only the foothills of the Japanese Alps. More to the north is Nagano Prefecture where they had the winter olympics. You can almost make out those mountain ranges from the top of these hills.
