Shitenno-ji

Shitennoji is one of the oldest buildings in Japan. Its layout follows the example of Chinese temples. Gojunotou Five-storied Pagoda is a symbol of Shitennoji. The wooden tower is painted with brilliant red. On the top of stupa has six pieces of sarira. You can have a quiet and leisure moment in the courtyard. Try to slow down your steps and enjoy your afternoon.
