Kichijoji Temple in Sankakuyama in late autumn

Most people know that there is a "Kichijoji" in Japan, but that "Kichijoji" is a place name, while there is also a Kichijoji in Seoul, which is actually a temple. Located halfway up a mountain in Seongbuk District, Seoul, Gigisana was formerly Daewongak, one of the three most famous traditional Korean restaurants in Korea. Later, the owner of the restaurant donated the land and buildings to the temple, and it was converted into a temple in 1997. It is one of the three major temples in Seoul along with Jogyesa Temple and Bongeunsa Temple. Kichijoji is a very quiet place and is also a good place for relaxation and meditation. On a rainy day in late autumn, there were few tourists and the entire Kichijoji temple seemed particularly peaceful. But the scenery inside the temple is like an overturned palette~~
