To-ji, or East Temple, is a prominent Buddhist temple in Kyoto, Japan, with a rich history dating back to its founding in 796. Established during the early Heian period, To-ji was originally named Kyō-ō-gokoku-ji, emphasizing its role in protecting the nation. The temple was founded by the influential monk Kūkai, also known as Kōbō Daishi, who played a pivotal role in the introduction of Esoteric Buddhism to Japan.To-ji's main pagoda, standing at 54.8 meters, is the tallest wooden tower in Japan and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Throughout its existence, the temple has undergone numerous reconstructions due to fires and other natural disasters. The complex also houses important cultural assets, including statues and scriptures. To-ji remains a symbol of spiritual significance, cultural heritage, and architectural marvel, attracting visitors seeking both religious insights and historical appreciation.

The Nishi-Honwan Temple is the largest wooden complex in Japan, with buildings and fascinating gardens built from the 1st century. The majestic posture of the Yuyingtang and Amituotang in the courtyard is magnificent. The remnants of Fushimi City's Tangmen, Japan's oldest Beineng stage, Bai Academy, Black Academy, Feiyun Pavilion and other buildings tell the present people about the gorgeous Taoshan culture.

Remember 2019.11 Kansai Late Autumn Festival~33 rooms are Japanese national treasure-level temples. When I went there, the front of the main church was being repaired, so I didn't see the overall magnificent structure of the temple. Tickets are 600 yen. Take off your shoes and store them on the shelf, and then enter the main hall to visit. Photos are not allowed inside. Seeing the Guanyin group statues with your own eyes, I was really shocked. Thousands of hands and thousands of eyes, Guanyin statues are exquisite and meticulous, and the appearance is transmitted. Thousands of group statues have a huge visual impact. They browse and visit all the way, and they are amazing and amazing. It was really unexpected, I didn't expect it to be so amazing. The courtyard outside is much inferior to other monasteries on the mountain, with large forests and red maple. But it is in line with the overall tone of the 33 rooms, simple, sacred, quiet and far-reaching.

Remember 2019.11 Kansai Late Autumn Festival~ In fact, Jianren Temple is not in my itinerary plan at all. However, Jianren Temple is opposite the hotel where I live. I am a little sorry for this geographical advantage. When I went out, I went shopping by the way. It was very quiet and there were few tourists. I don't know if it was because it was early. Later, one afternoon, I changed my kimono and went to Jianren Temple to visit. There seemed to be more tourists, but the overall flow of people was not large. The experience of visiting would be better, especially when you have been to Kiyomizu Temple. After that, it is simply a paradise. If the itinerary is not satisfied, there is free time, it is good to come here.

This time, take the Kyoto bus No. 50 to Tianmangong to enjoy plum blossoms. There are many plum blossoms to appreciate. You can enjoy plum blossoms without entering the plum garden for a fee. After that, take the 203 bus to Jin Market. It is a good trip.

The Kyoto Tower offers a captivating experience, particularly with its collaboration featuring Hibike Euphonium. The ambiance is heightened by the OST playing in the background, which resonates deeply and enhances the overall atmosphere. Witnessing Kumiko on the big screen generates an exhilarating excitement, adding an extra layer of immersion to the visit. This unique collaboration elevates the tower visit to an unforgettable, musically enchanting experience for fans and visitors alike.
