A mysterious space filled with a thousand statues of the Thousand-Armed Kannon 🛕✨

Sanjusangendo is one of Kyoto's most famous Buddhist buildings. It was named after the 33 spaces between the pillars in the main hall. The hall is lined with a row of Thousand-Armed Kannon statues, and the solemn atmosphere is captivating. In a mysterious space where time seems to have stopped, you can feel the depth of Japanese Buddhist culture. Sights to see👀 The biggest attraction of Sanjusangendo is the 1,001 standing Thousand-Armed Kannon statues. The Kannon statues, neatly lined up around the main image, the seated Thousand-Armed Kannon statue, enshrined in the center, are truly a masterpiece. In addition, don't miss the statues of the wind god and thunder god, and the 28 deities. All of the statues are intricately crafted down to the smallest detail, and you can feel the essence of Japanese Buddhist art! ! Recommended time to visit🌸❄ The "Toshiya" event, held every January, is a traditional event where archery experts from all over the country gather to shoot arrows inside the long hall. Sanjusangendo Temple stands out for its tranquil beauty, especially in the clear winter air. 📍 Address: 657 Sanjusangendo-mawaricho, Higashiyama-ku, Kyoto City, Kyoto Prefecture #0yentravelFebruary2025 #Sanjusangendo Temple #Kyototourism #ThousandArmedKannon #HistoricalWalk #BuddhistArchitecture
