Vibrant boat houses on stilts reflect on calm Ine Bay waters, a picturesque Japanese coastal scene.
A picturesque scene of traditional Japanese boat houses, known as Funaya, nestled along the calm waters of Ine Bay. These unique dwellings, built on stilts over the water, feature vibrant colors and reflections on the still surface, showcasing the harmonious blend of natural and human-made elements in this coastal fishing community.

Turquoise waves whisper,
Gray sands meet lush green hillside,
Sky`s vast canopy.
ターコイズの波、
緑が丘に灰砂、
空の大広間。

Gentle cats weave through the grey,
Peace in urban hues.
