Japan - Rural Land between Osaka and Kyoto

The tour coach continued through the farmland to Kyoto.  I liked the fact that the highway was elevated and the farmlands beneath it worked uninterrupted.

The brownish trees are bamboo.  I zoomed in and looked very close to see if I could see Ninjas walking on the bamboo.  I'm not sure...

A neighborhood cemetery.

 Fields and covered growing buildings.  Hot houses.

The land quickly changed from rural rice farmland to suburban homes in developed areas.

Looks like the fields are ready for spring planting.
