Photogenic💞Heart window and ceiling painting💞Kyoto's wind chime temple🎐Shojuin😊🎐

This time, we will introduce Shojuin Temple in Kyoto. It is famous as a wind chime temple, but it also has Inome windows and ceiling paintings that have become a hot topic on social media. Inome windows are heart-shaped and are one of the traditional Japanese patterns that have been passed down since ancient times. They have been used in architectural decorations such as temples and shrines for about 1,400 years, and are said to ward off disasters and bring good fortune. In addition, at Shojuin Temple, there are ceiling paintings in the area where the Inome windows are located. Here, about 90 Japanese painters have painted flowers and landscapes that give a sense of Japan, and the colorful paintings are very wonderful and fascinating. 🥹 Of course, there are many types of wind chimes, which are also very tasteful and lovely, so please visit! 🎐Shojuin Temple🎐📍149 Okuyamada Kawakami, Ujitawara-cho, Tsuzuku-gun, Kyoto Prefecture🚃Get off at the Kyoto Keihan Bus "Shojuin-guchi" bus stop and walk for 15 minutes (only operates on holiday schedules)Get off at the Kyoto Keihan Bus "Ichu-mae" bus stop and transfer to a taxi for 10 minutes🚗From National Route 307, head south at Miyagauchi intersection, about 1km⏰9:00-16:30💰Normal admission is 600 yen, during the wind chime festival it is 800 yen #Kyoto sightseeing #Shojuin Temple #Wind chime temple #Sunflowers #Weekend outing #Domestic trip
