Stunning Painting-Like Photography Shows Off The Beauty Of Rainy Season In Japan

Japan’s rainy season, or tsuyu (梅雨), can be downright oppressive. Muggy and humid weather coupled with heavy rain make it a complete sweat-fest, and for those new to that kind of weather, the idea of going outside and traveling around the country seems totally unpleasant.

Those who can brave the elements, however, will find that the famous sites of Japan are every bit as beautiful to see during the rain season, and even have an added quality of charm to them. Photographer Hidenobu Suzuki is one traveler who can attest to that with his gorgeous photo series of Japan during rainy season.
