Higashiyama Ward, Kyoto. Japan

From left to right are a 1981 stamp depicting the Japanese folk song "Cherry Blossoms" by Takeshima Hagoromo and Rentarō Taki in 1900, a paper mache tiger toy from a 2009 Year of the Tiger stamp set, and a lucky cat from a 2019 Year of the Ram stamp set. The Higashiyama Ward is Kyoto's well preserved historical district with narrow streets lined with wooden buildings and traditional shop.
