横浜市にある總持寺の「百間廊下」。東西の殿堂群をつなぎ合わせて、外苑と内苑とを分ける廊下は長さ１５２メートルもあります。床がいつもピカピカ。

An outdoor hallway called “Hyakken-rouka” at the Buddhist temple Soji-ji in Yokohama, Japan. The shiny floors, which the monks polish daily, is 152 meters long! I took this photo on a lovely Spring morning. It’s part of a 4-photo black-and-white set including: Spring White Flowers, Roof Tile Details, Ornate Lamp Post.

Art prints are available on Fine Art America.

Alternatively, customizable poster and canvas prints carrying this image are available on Zazzle. The characters on the left make up a Japanese Buddhism quote that reads “Ingaouhou” meaning “What goes around comes around” or “As you sow, so you shall reap”. This text portion is fully changeable so you may customize with your own favorite quote or proverb.
