A designated National Treasure

The larger purpose of the temple is to serve as the headquarters of the Buddhist Shingon sect. founded by the monk Kobo Daishi, whose mausoleum can be found at nearby Okunoin Temple. While it is architecturally satisfying from the outside, take off your shoes and step through the doors Very good experience to learn shingo buddhism intorduced by kobo daishi. 1000 yen to enter and see more sights but you can't take pictures in the inside, only the outer area like the rocks and greenery. Especially the garden, which is full of Zen #songkran2024#mytravelhacks#cherryblossom2024#historicallandmarks#localguides#familytrip#trip#instatravel#goodfoods#langkawi#foodphotography#chinatown#ipoh#temples#familyfun#siemreap#edinburgh#คาเฟ่ห้ามพลาด

Koyasan

Mount Koyasan is a magical place, high in the mountains about 2 hours by train from Osaka. It is the “headquarters” of Shinto Buddhism, which gives it a very peaceful atmosphere. You can sleep in a local temple and enjoy a vegetarian meal, see the photo for a feel of how many different dishes. Tip: after dinner take a walk through town, even more serene and in my opinion an unforgettable experience.
