    Huangyeと Zhu Tuりの Bridge

    Original Text

    50 minutes by Otawara Municipal Bus from Nasushiobara Station. A temple of the Rinzai sect Myoshinji school built during the Daiji era (1126~ 1131). The principal image is Shakamuni Buddha. A warped bridge is built on the approach, and when you cross the bridge, the stone steps continue to the mountain gate. Unfortunately, it was raining, but the rain darkened the color of the yellow leaves of the tree 々 and the vermilion-painted railing, creating a beautiful scenery. The mountain gate was built in the Edo period and was roofed with wooden copper plates (tangible cultural property designated by the city). After passing through the mountain gate, the Buddhist hall is in front of you, and the Hojo is followed. Something special ...

    Unganji Temple / Otawara City, Tochigi Prefecture [Temple] Matsuo Basho also visited plenty of old temples

    Original Text

    Higashiyama Unganji Temple is a temple located in Unganji Temple in Otawara City, Tochigi Prefecture. The principal image was Shakamuni Buddha, which was founded by Kohokennichi in 1283, and converted to the Rinzai sect Myoshinji school in 1578. On October 7, 2021, we finished lunch with tonkatsu tonkun on this day. From there, I drove to Unganji Temple. The parking lot is very large. Sugi, 550 years old. It's a fairly wide precinct. 175 ...

    Zen Fourth Avenue Field の 1つ

    Original Text

    It is a temple of the Rinzai sect that Basho also visited and appears in "Okunohosodo". It was also used in the commercial of Sayuri Yoshinaga's JR East a few years ago. The ancient temple heading for winter is completely different from that of the autumn leaves season, and I felt that it emphasized the tense severity unique to Zen temples.

    芭蕉ゆかりの地

    大人の休日倶楽部で有名になった所ですが 訪問時は人も少なくいい雰囲気でした。 日本禅宗4大道場の「雲巌寺」は那須最強のパワースポット!らしいので 是非行ってみてください。 芭蕉、奥の細道ゆかりの地でもあります。

    由緒あるお寺です

    雲巌寺は筑前の聖福寺、越前の永平寺、紀州の興国寺と並んで、禅宗の日本四大道場と呼ばれ、山門の正面にある朱塗りの反り橋を渡って石段を登ると、正面に釈迦堂、獅子王殿が一直線に並ぶ代表的な伽藍配置となっています。 俳聖松尾芭蕉は、この地で「木啄も 庵は破らず 夏木立」の句を残しています。 雲巌寺は何度か訪問しています。ブルベでも前を通ったのですが時間が無いので素通りしてしまいました。 今回はゆっく...
