Amanohashidate Chionji Temple!

#0 yen travel Amanohashidate, one of the three most scenic spots in Japan, and Chionji Temple, the first of the three sacred places of Manjusri in Japan. Since ancient times, it has been known as a sacred place where the strange sight of Amanohashidate and the faith in Manjusri are combined. It is the only pagoda in the Tango region built in the Muromachi period, and Dainichi Nyorai is enshrined in the center. It has been designated as an important cultural property of the country. Its appearance is also conveyed in Sesshu's "Amanohashidate Map". The main hall was remodeled by Kyogoku Takakuni, the lord of Miyazu Castle, in the Edo period, but the four central pillars are still the same as those of the original building, and writings written by people who visited here in the Kamakura period remain. In addition, votive plaques donated by many people are displayed on the outside of the hall. Among them are mathematical plaques and paintings praying for improvement in academic ability, and plaques with waka poems, and you can see the thoughts of people who prayed for the improvement of wisdom. #Kyoto sightseeing #Temple tour
