Park
Nature & Parks
Slide 1 of 8
(Translated by Google) The park is kept very clean, probably because it is kept well-maintained on a regular basis. It's in an open area and there are no buildings blocking your view on sunny days, making it a very pleasant experience. Perhaps because of the season, there were carp streamers floating in the air along the river, which was quite a sight to see. I highly recommend that you take a look if you are in the area. There is some shade on midsummer days, but it may be a good idea to take precautions against heatstroke. The grounds within the park are also very large, so you can enjoy playing ball, but since it is along the river, you need to be careful not to fall into it. There are also almost no play equipment. I also checked the toilet, but couldn't find anything in particular. (Original) 普段から清掃が行き届いているのかとても清潔にされている公園となります。開けた場所にあり天気が良い日は遮るような建物もないため、とても気持ちよく過ごせます。 時期的なのか川沿いに鯉のぼりがズラッと宙を舞っておりとても見どころがありました。是非お近くにいかれた際は見られることをオススメ致します。 真夏日などは多少日陰がありますが、熱中症対策はされていたほうが良いかもしれません。 公園内の敷地もとても広いためボール遊びも楽しめますが川沿いとなるため落っことさないように注意は必要です。また遊具はほとんどありません。トイレも確認してみたのですが特に見当たりませんでした。
(Translated by Google) The road is very small, and each parking lot is owned by a specific business. It's a pity that I passed by to go to the hot springs, but I didn't know where to park my car, so I couldn't appreciate it carefully. (Original) 路很小條,每個停車場都是特定商家所有,去泡溫泉路過,車卻不知停哪里,沒能仔細欣賞,很可惜。
(Translated by Google) Just to watch the carp streamers, there is no shade except under the bridge, so you will need something to drink. There is also a small parking lot on the riverbed. But the carp streamers are very nice. The riverbed is very wide, so if you have a drink and an umbrella, you can relax. I'd be happy if there were family restaurants and cafes nearby, but if that happened, it would be more crowded... (Original) こいのぼりを見るだけで、橋の下以外日陰無いので、飲物必要。 駐車場も河川敷に少しあるだけ。 でも鯉のぼりはとても素敵。 河原はとても広いので、ドリンクと日傘があればゆっくりできます。 近所にファミレスやカフェがあると嬉しいけど、そんなことになったら却って混むか…
(Translated by Google) The townscape of Shinmachi-dori in Gojo City stretches along the Yoshino River. When you step out onto the riverbank, you can see the Yoshino River flowing leisurely across the spacious riverbed, and your mood will be refreshed. Although Gojo City has the atmosphere of being a ``river town,'' one of the reasons why Gojo City prospered in the first place was water transportation along the Yoshino River, so they have been inseparable since ancient times. On days when the weather is nice, you can enjoy a walk along the river. (Original) 五條市新町通りの町並みは吉野川に沿って伸びています。 河原に出ると、広々とした河川敷の向こうに悠然と流れる吉野川の姿が望まれ、気分も晴れ晴れとしてきます。 「川のある町」とはなかなか風情がありますが、そもそも五條市が栄えた理由の一つがこの吉野川の水運だそうですから、昔から切っても切れない関係にあったわけですね。 天気の良い日は川辺の散策が楽しめる場所です。
(Translated by Google) At this time of year, carp streamers line up and it's fun just to watch them swim. The greenery of the mountains and the flowers on the riverbed are vivid, and the sounds of birds and the sound of flowing water are soothing. It's my favorite place. It might be a little difficult if you have a large car that has to go in and out of the parking lot. There aren't many cars that can be parked, so depending on the timing, there may be a line waiting for a space. Another thing that bothers me is the glimpses of trash... After playing, be sure to clean up after yourself and take your trash home! I think it's a great place to relax on a sunny day. (Original) この時期、鯉のぼりがずらりと並び、泳ぐ姿を見ているだけで楽しい。 山の緑、河川敷の草花も鮮やかで、鳥の声、川の流れる水音に癒されます。 私の大好きな場所です。 駐車場の出入りが大きい車だとちょっと大変かも?停められる台数も多くはないので、タイミングによっては空き待ちの行列ができてることも。 あと気になるのはゴミもチラホラ… 遊んだ後は必ず後片付けと、ゴミは持ち帰りましょうね! お天気の良い日にのんびりするにはとてもいい場所だと思います。
(Translated by Google) Visited on 4.19. The rows of carp streamers are spectacular and highly recommended. I was quite impressed. (Original) 4.19に訪問。鯉のぼりがずらっと並んで壮観でおすすめです。かなり感動しました。
(Translated by Google) Although the weather was bad, there were many cute carp streamers. (Original) お天気が悪かったけど沢山の鯉のぼりが可愛いかったです。

(Translated by Google) I visited on New Year's Day, January 1, 2025. There was no one at the unmanned reception desk, so I was able to walk around quietly. The weather was nice and I could hear the birds chirping, so I took a leisurely 30 minute tour. In the 24 year taiga drama Fujiwara no Michinaga appeared, but his ancestor Nakamaro, who was much more distant than him, was there to mourn the death of his father, Takechimaro. It was founded. The octagonal hall is impressive, and the material and color of the pillars are reminiscent of the early Nara period, along with Horyuji Temple. Makes me feel. What I was most interested in was that during the Nanbokucho period, the Emperor of Changqing had his residence here around 1380. The courtiers around him wondered how he felt when he faced the Ashikaga shogunate, since he had decided to face the Northern Court side. We were walking around thinking about how many people were there. The Emperor of Changqing, known for being a hardliner, He probably strongly inherited Emperor Go-Daigo's wishes. Here at Eizan-ji Temple, we regained control of the Emperor. Was he involved in the political affairs of the entire court nobles? Ten years later, during the Yoshimitsu era, between Gokizan-in and Union will be achieved. I came here because I was very interested in the life after the Taiheiki. (Original) 2025年1/1元日に参詣しました。無人受付で誰も参詣客がおらず、静かに周れました。 天気が良くて鳥のさえずりが聞こえ、30分程度ぐるりとゆっくり拝観。24年大河ドラマでは 藤原道長が登場していましたが彼よりはるか遠い先祖の仲麻呂が父、武智麻呂の菩提を弔うため 創建したとか。八角円堂は迫力があり柱の素材、色は法隆寺とともに奈良時代初期の頃を 感じさせます。最も興味があったのは、南北朝時代に長慶の帝が1380年ごろここに行在所を 定めて北朝側と対していたことで、どんな気持ちで足利幕府と対峙していたのか、周りの廷臣 たちはどれだけいたのか想いを巡らせながら散策していました。強硬派で知られる長慶の帝は おそらく後醍醐天皇の意思を強く受け継いでいたのでしょう。ここ栄山寺で天皇親政を奪回し、 公家一統の政事を巡らせていたのでしょうか。これより10年後の義満の世で後亀山院との間で 合一が果たされます。太平記の後の世に大変興味があり、ここを訪れました。
(Translated by Google) Eisanji (formerly known as Eizanji) is a temple of the Shingon sect. Eizan-ji Temple is said to have been founded in 719 by Takeshimaro, the eldest son of Fujiwara Fuhito. It is said that the existing octagonal hall was built by Takechimaro's son Nakamaro after his death to mourn for his father's body. Buchimaro's tomb was originally located on Mt. Saho (a hilly area in the northern part of Nara city), but in 760, it was relocated to the top of the mountain on the north side of Eizan-ji Temple. The period of construction of the octagonal hall has been narrowed down to the five years from this year to the year 8 of Tenpyoji (764), when Nakamaro died. A similar octagonal hall, Horyuji Toin Yumeden, was built in 739. During the Nanbokucho period (1337-1392), it was the residence of Emperor Gomurakami, Emperor Chokei, and Emperor Gokameyama of the Southern Court, and it has been designated as a national historic site as the site of the Eizan-ji Imperial Palace. At the end of the Sengoku period, all temple buildings except the octagonal hall were burnt down. Afterwards, the main hall, Amida-do hall, and Tono-do hall were rebuilt, as well as the sub-temple Rokuu. Octagonal Hall has been designated as a national treasure. (Original) 栄山寺(えいさんじ/旧字体:榮山寺)は、真言宗のお寺です。栄山寺は、藤原不比等の長男である武智麻呂によって、養老3年(719)に創建されたと伝えられています。 現存する八角堂は、武智麻呂の没後に子の仲麻呂が父の菩提を弔うために建立したと伝えられています。武智麻呂の墓は当初は佐保山(奈良市街地北部の丘陵地)にありましたが、天平宝字4年(760)、栄山寺北側の山上に改葬されました。八角堂の建立時期はこの年から仲麻呂の没した天平宝字8年(764)までの5年間に絞られています。なお同様の八角堂の法隆寺東院夢殿が建立されたのは天平11年(739)です。 南北朝時代(1337~1392)には南朝の後村上天皇・長慶天皇・後亀山天皇の行在所が置かれていたこともあり、栄山寺行宮跡として国の史跡に指定されています。 戦国時代末期には八角堂を除く堂坊が焼失しました。その後、本堂、阿弥陀堂、塔ノ堂が再建され、さらに塔頭六宇が再建されました。八角堂は国宝に指定されています。
(Translated by Google) It's about a 30-minute walk from JR Gojo Station along the national highway. According to the temple's explanation, it was built in 719 by Takechimaro, grandson of Fujiwara Kamatari. The octagonal hall and temple bell are national treasures, and the stone lantern and stone stupa are important cultural properties, but it does not appear to be a tourist temple. I went for a special viewing of the secret Yakushi Nyorai statue. Inside the main hall are a gilded seated Yakushi statue about 2m tall and twelve heavenly generals about 1m tall, but the glass makes them a little difficult to see. There was also a statue that looked like an eleven-faced Kannon about 1m tall, but I couldn't really make it out. Additionally, in the Pagoda Hall there are a standing eleven-faced Kannon statue, a seated Kukai statue, and a standing Acala statue, all just over 1m tall. Acala's robes are blue, which is unusual. In the National Treasure Octagonal Hall, there is a 1.5m seated Amida statue facing south at the front, a seated Jizo statue that looks like a monk to the north (about 1m including the pedestal), a 1.2m standing statue of Kisshoten to the west, and a 1.2m seated Tathagata statue to the east. The seated Tathagata statue is missing from the wrists down, and even temple officials say they can only identify it as "Tathagata." There are also faint paintings remaining on the round pillars supporting the Octagonal Hall. There are also paintings on the ceiling, but they are quite faded. Perhaps because of the poor transportation access, there was only one other group of worshippers there when I visited. (Original) JR五条駅から国道沿いを徒歩30分ぐらいです。 お寺の説明によれば、藤原鎌足の孫 武智麿が719年に建立したとなっています。 八角円堂、梵鐘が国宝、石燈篭、石塔婆が重文ですが、観光寺ではないようです。 秘仏の薬師如来の特別拝観に行きました。本堂内には2mぐらいの金ぴかの薬師坐像と1mぐらいの十二神将がいらっしゃいますが、ガラスが反射して少し見にくいです。他にも1mぐらいの十一面観音らしき仏像もありましたが、よくわかりませんでした。また、塔之堂にはいずれも1m強の十一面観音立像、空海坐像、不動明王立像がいらっしゃいました。不動明王の衣は青く、珍しいです。 国宝の八角円堂には、正面 南向きに1.5mの阿弥陀坐像、北側に僧侶に見える地蔵坐像(台座含め1mぐらい)、西側に1.2mの吉祥天立像、東側に1.2m如来坐像がありました。如来坐像は手首から先がなくなっており、お寺の方も「如来」としかわからないそうです。 また、八角円堂を支える丸柱には微かに絵が残っています。天井にも絵が描かれていますが、かなり薄くなっていました。 交通の便が悪いせいか、私が訪れた時には他に1組しか参拝者はいませんでした。
(Translated by Google) I went for a drive to Gojo, so first I went to Eizanji Temple. The window to pay the entrance fee was closed even though it was Saturday, and there were no worshipers. Instead, there was a box to put the entrance fee on the left side of the gate leading to the building. As I passed through there, I immediately saw buildings such as the main hall lined up compactly, and I was able to see the main attractions in a short amount of time. Among them, the Octagonal Hall, which was built in the Nara period, is a national treasure.As its name suggests, it has eight corners, giving it a rounded appearance, giving it an imposing yet soft feel. Another national treasure is the temple bell, but the door to the temple where the temple bell is hung was closed, so I could only peek through the gap in the lattice. If you make a reservation in advance for groups, you can see the inside of both national treasures. Are there not that many worshipers in the first place, or is it because it happened to be the middle of winter? Even though there are two national treasures, it felt a little lonely. By the way, there are no toilets on the temple grounds, but there is a free parking lot with a toilet on the west side of Mont-Bell on the east side of the temple, so if you are driving, it might be better to park there☺️ (Original) ドライブがてら五條まで出掛けたので、まずは英山寺さんへ 入山料を払う窓口は土曜日だというのに閉まっており、参拝者は一人もおらず🤨 代わりになのか建物へと向かう門の左側に入山料を入れるボックスが設置されていました そちらを通り抜けると、すぐに本堂などの建築物がコンパクトに並んでいて、主な見どころは短時間で回れました なかでも奈良時代の建築であるという八角堂は国宝であり、その名の通り8つの角があることから丸みをおびて見え、堂々としつつもどこか柔らかさを感じさせます もうひとつの国宝はお寺の梵鐘なのですが、梵鐘が吊るされているお堂の扉は締まっていて、格子の隙間から覗くのみでした😅 団体さんなど事前に予約すると、国宝どちらも中が見せてもらったりできるようですが そもそもあまり参拝者が多くないのか、たまたま真冬だったせいなのか? 国宝がふたつもあると言うのにちょっと寂しい雰囲気ではありました ちなみにトイレはお寺の敷地内には見あたらず、お寺の東側モンベルよりは西の手前に、トイレのある無料の駐車場があるので車ならそちらに停めた方が良いかもです☺️
(Translated by Google) This temple is said to be the family temple of the Fujiwara clan. It's a little far from Gojo Station, but there are no local buses. Therefore, the only way to visit the shrine is by taxi or on foot. When the weather is nice, it's quite nice to take a leisurely walk to the shrine while looking at the rural scenery of Gojo City. At the tourist information center, there is a pamphlet for walking around Gojo City's famous and historic sites, and it also includes a route to Eizanji Temple. Although it is a temple that is a national treasure, there are almost no crowds and people can visit at a leisurely pace. The octagonal hall here is a national treasure and is quite a sight to behold. There are fixed times when you can visit the shrine, so we recommend researching it in advance before visiting. The Yoshino River flows nearby, and the view is quite scenic. (Original) 藤原氏南家の菩提寺と言われているお寺。 五条駅からちょっと距離があるけど、路線バスは通っていない。 そのため、参拝にはタクシーか徒歩で行くしかない。 気候が良い時は五條市の田園風景を見ながら ゆっくり歩いて参拝に行くのもなかなか良いです。 観光案内所では五條市の名所旧跡を歩いて回るパンフレットがあり、栄山寺へのコース書かれている。 国宝があるお寺だけど、人出はほとんどなく、ゆったりと参拝がでる。 ここの八角堂は国宝、なかなかの見ごたえです。 拝観できる時期は決まっているので、事前に調べて参拝することを薦めます。 近くには吉野川が流れていて、その眺めはなかなかの景観です。
(Translated by Google) I visited because I was told that I would be able to have a special look at the inner sanctum of the National Treasure Octagonal Hall. The principal image of Yakushi Nyorai was open to the public, but it seemed that it was only possible to enter the main hall on May 4th. On weekdays, there were fewer people and I was able to visit the shrine slowly. (Original) 国宝八角円堂内陣特別拝観が出来るとの事で参拝しました。ご本尊薬師如来はご開帳されていましたが本堂に入れるのは5/4だけのようでした。 平日は人少なくゆっくり参拝出来ました。
(Translated by Google) I visited the temple in October 2021. I think this was my third time. This time, I walked from Gojo Station. It's about 2.2km from the station. The principal image and the National Treasure Octagonal Hall were open to the public for a special viewing, with a separate admission fee. The principal image was viewed from outside the main hall through glass. The Twelve Heavenly Generals statues in front of it are also designated Important Cultural Properties. I was also allowed inside the Octagonal Hall. Photography is not permitted inside the hall, but you can take photos of the exterior. The viewing started at 9:00, but the head priest was scheduled to give a presentation from 10:00, so we waited. About 10 people received a 30-minute presentation. I was given a special goshuin (temple seal). It seems that goshuin (temple seals) are only available during special viewings. I visited in May 2024, when the inside of the main hall was open to the public for a special viewing. (Original) 令和3年10月拝観しました。3度目だと思います。今回も五条駅から徒歩で行きました。駅から2.2kmぐらいある様です。ご本尊と国宝の八角円堂が特別公開され別料金に成りました。 ご本尊は本堂の外からガラス越しの拝観でした。その前に並ぶ十二神将像とも重要文化財に指定されています。 八角円堂の中にも入らせていただきました。お堂の中は写真撮影は出来ませんが外観は撮る事が出来ます。 9時からの拝観でしたが10時からご住職が説明していただけるというので待ちました。10人ほどの人が30分ほどの説明を受けました。 特別な御朱印がありいただきました。御朱印をいただけるのは特別公開の時だけのようです。 令和6年5月本堂の中を特別公開するというので訪れました。
(Translated by Google) I had business in Gojo City, and I had long wanted to visit the national treasures, the "Octagonal Hall" and "Buddhist Bell." By chance, I was able to see the "Tempyo Bodhisattva Pillar Painting" when the principal image of the Octagonal Hall was open to the public for a limited time of the season. The architecture also exudes a sense of wabi (traditional Japanese aesthetic) and sabi (traditional Japanese aesthetic). In addition to the national treasures, there are many other important cultural properties, such as wooden statues, stone lanterns, and stone stupas. (Original) 五條市に用事があり、以前から国宝の『八角堂』『梵鐘』を拝観したく参拝して参りました。偶々ですが、季節期間限定にて八角堂のご本尊御開帳と巡り合わせる事が出来、『天平の菩薩の柱絵』を拝観出来ました。建築物には、侘び、寂びも感じられます。国宝以外にも木像、石灯籠、石塔婆、、重要文化財が沢山あります。

(Translated by Google) This is a temple that Tenchu-gumi made into their headquarters after defeating the magistrate, but the grounds are not as large as expected. On the premises, there is a washbasin where Magistrate Gennai Suzuki washed his head, which is a reminder of the past. (Original) 天誅組が代官を討って本陣にした寺だが思ったより敷地はひろくない。敷地内に代官鈴木源内の首を洗った手水鉢があり往時を偲ばせる。
(Translated by Google) An ancient temple said to have been founded during the Heian period. It is said that it was once one of the largest temples in Gojo. The precincts are still large enough, but because of this, in 1863, due to the violence of the Tenchu-gumi led by Torataro Yoshimura and Tadamitsu Nakayama, it was turned into the main shrine. The Tenchu-gumi carried out looting, arson, and murder throughout Yamato, pretending to be a revolution. There was a poster at the temple advocating non-violence, but for some reason Yoshimura and others are seen as heroes in Gojo City. That's ironic. (Original) 平安時代創建と伝える古刹。かつては五条有数の大寺だったという。今でも境内は十分広いが、それゆえに文久3年(1863年)に吉村虎太郎や中山忠光が起こした天誅組の暴挙で本陣にされてしまった。天誅組は革命を気取って大和各地で略奪、放火、殺人を働いた。寺のポスターに非暴力主義を標榜するポスターがあったが、なぜか五條市では吉村らは英雄視されている。皮肉な話だ。
(Translated by Google) At the end of the Edo period, the Tenchu-gumi was the first in the country to raise the alarm and set up camp at this temple.In front of the gate stands a stone monument marking the site of the Tenchu-gumi's main camp, and in front of the main hall remains a stone water bowl that is said to have washed the heads of magistrates. I have it. It wasn't as big as I had expected, but it was a small, well-appointed temple. (Original) 幕末に天誅組が全国に先駆けて、倒幕の狼煙を上げ陣地を開いた御寺、門前には天誅組本陣跡の石碑が立ち、本堂前には代官達の首を洗ったと言われる石手水鉢が残ってます。想っていた程のスケールはなく、整えられた小さな御寺でした。
(Translated by Google) A temple where Tenchu-gumi is said to have set up their headquarters as part of the new Gojo government. The Tenchu-gumi murdered Gennai Suzuki, a magistrate in this area, and four of his subordinates, and had their heads exposed, but the basin where the Tenchu-gumi allegedly washed Gennai Suzuki's head is also left in the temple grounds. The main hall and bell tower were designed by Togo Murano and completed in 1967. The main hall has a temple-like feel with its large roof and wide eaves, but the thin pillars and concrete materials give it a modern feel. The bell tower has a high floor space that gives a sense of lightness. (Original) 天誅組が五條新政府として本陣を置いたとされる寺院。天誅組は、この地域の代官鈴木源内とその部下4名を殺害、晒し首としたが、境内には、天誅組が鈴木源内を首を洗ったとされる首洗鉢も残されている。 本堂や鐘楼などは村野藤吾設計、1967年に竣工。本堂は大屋根や広い軒下などに寺院らしさが見られるが、細い柱やコンクリート素材がモダンな印象を与える。鐘楼は高い床下空間に軽さを感じられる。
(Translated by Google) This temple is famous for Tenchu-gumi. During the Yoshino District Flood disaster in August 1897, a first aid station (perhaps we would call this an evacuation center today?) was established. (Original) 天誅組で有名なお寺です。 明治22年8月の吉野郡水災の時に救護所(現在でいうとこの避難所かな?)が設置される。
(Translated by Google) I stopped by on my way back from sightseeing. It seems to be a hot topic because it has the same kanji as Arashi's Sakurai. I also received a goshuin stamp, but I was worried about where I could get it since there was no resemblance to a shrine office, but there was a house to the right of the offering, so if you press the intercom and ask for a goshuin, you can get one. (Original) 観光帰りに寄りました。 嵐の櫻井さんと同じ漢字から話題のようです。 御朱印も頂きましたが社務所らしきもの無く何処で御朱印を頂けるのか不安になりましたが、お賽銭の右の方に家がありインターホンを押して御朱印をお願いするともらえます。
(Translated by Google) This is the temple where Tenchu-gumi raised an army at the end of the Edo period. In 1863, five years before the Meiji Restoration, in conjunction with Emperor Komei's Yamato Era, Tenchu-gumi was formed by Tadamitsu Nakayama, a court noble, Torataro Yoshimura of Tosa, and Shingo Nasu. They went out of control and attacked the magistrate's office. However, the time was not ripe at all, and it became a senseless outrage. (Original) 幕末、天誅組が挙兵に及んだお寺です。明治維新の5年前の文久三年(1863年)孝明天皇の大和僥倖に合わせて、公家の中山忠光、土佐の吉村寅太郎や那須信吾らが天誅組を結成。暴走して代官所を襲撃しました。しかし、機はまったく熟しておらず、無意味な暴挙となりました。
(Translated by Google) At the end of the Edo period, radical samurai who broke away from the domain and advocated ``respecting the emperor and overthrowing the shogunate'' formed the ``Tenchu-gumi'' and called themselves the ``Gojo New Government'' based at ``Sakurai Temple'' in Gose City. At the entrance of the temple, there is a signpost that says [Tenchu-gumi Honjin Ruins]. There is a stone monument of Basho's haiku in the garden. Five miles and six miles in each day of Sakura Karikitokuya The haiku ``Sakuragari...'' was written in 1687 and is published in ``Ko no Kobun.'' (Original) 幕末、〔尊皇倒幕〕を掲げ、脱藩の急進派武士たちが、〔天誅組〕を結成、御所市の〔桜井寺〕を本拠として〔五条新政府〕を号したことがある。 寺の入口に〔天誅組本陣跡〕の標柱がある。 庭内には、芭蕉の句碑があり、 さくらかりきとくや日々に五里六里 はせを 〔桜がり・・〕の句は貞享5年(1687)の作で、〔笈の小文〕に所載。

A beautiful temple to visit and highly recommended to go see. There's a bit of a hike to the mountain top, a bit of rough ground, but plenty of handrails to hang on to making it relatively easy to navigate.
(Translated by Google) It is a wonderful Shingon Buddhist temple close to Osaka city where you can spend time in peace and tranquility. It is a precious temple filled with important cultural properties and national treasures, and you can see them up close in the treasure hall and main hall. (Original) 大阪市からも近く心静かに清々しく過ごせるすばらしい真言宗のお寺でした。重要文化財と国宝がいっぱいあり宝物殿と金堂でまのあたりに拝ませていただける貴重なお寺でした。
(Translated by Google) I visited the temple in April 2018. This may have been my fourth time. Repairs to the main hall were completed, and the statues of Dainichi Nyorai, Acala, and Ryusanze Myo-o, which had previously been on display at the Kyoto and Nara National Museums, were removed for a special exhibition. They were also designated as National Treasures. I took the bus from Kawachinagano Station, but it seems there's only one bus per hour. It might be a good idea to check the return time. At Kongoji Temple, the restored main hall, dining hall, bell tower, pagoda, and tower gate have been designated Important Cultural Properties. The Sun and Moon Landscape Screen has also been newly designated a National Treasure. (I had previously seen this screen at a special exhibition at the art museum.) I bought a combined ticket for the entrance fee and the main temple, but I lost it. I mentioned it at the main temple and they contacted me, so I was able to visit. Thank you. They're doing a great job, even after making such a mistake. On April 17, 2023, after visiting the principal image of Kanshinji Temple, we took a bus to Kongoji Temple. We were able to view the National Treasure Buddha statue during a special viewing of the Golden Hall. Also on May 4, 2023, we viewed the National Treasure Sun and Moon Landscape Screen at the main temple. (Original) 平成30年4月に拝観しました。四度目でしょうか?金堂の修理が完了したのでそれまで、京都と奈良の国立博物館に展示されていた大日如来坐像・不動明王坐像・隆三世明王坐像がお帰りになり特別公開されました。指定も国宝になりました。 河内長野駅からバスで行きましたが、一時間に一本ほどの様です。帰りの時間を確認しておいた方が良いかもしれません。 金剛寺では修理された金堂や食堂・鐘楼・多宝塔・楼門は重要文化財に指定されています。また、日月山水屏風が新たに国宝に指定されました。(この屏風は以前美術館の特別展で拝見したことがありました) 入山料と本坊の共通券を買ったのですがなくしてしまいました。本坊でその事を言うと連絡を受けているからと拝観をさせていただきました。ありがとうございました。よくやるんですよ。こんな失敗を。 令和五年4月17日観心寺の御本尊を拝観した後、バスで金剛寺へ。金堂の特別拝観で国宝の仏像を拝観しました。 同じく令和五年5月4日、この日は本坊で国宝の日月山水屏風を拝観しました。
(Translated by Google) This is a historic and prestigious temple with many National Treasure Buddhist statues and important cultural property buildings. Valuable buildings remain, having been the seat of the three retired emperors of the Northern Court and the Southern Court during the same period. Best of all, there are very few visitors from rude neighboring countries, so the temple is kept quiet and clean. This is a temple that is definitely worth visiting at least once. (Original) 国宝の仏像や重文の建築物多数がある歴史ある由緒正しいお寺様です。 北朝三代上皇さまと南朝の御座所が同時期に存在した貴重な建築物が残っています。 何より礼儀の悪い近隣諸国からの来訪が無いかとても少ないので静寂と清潔が保たれています。 是非一度は訪れたい寺院です。
(Translated by Google) It was a quiet and beautiful place. It is a Shingon Buddhist temple and we were able to see national treasures. The entrance fee is 200 yen, and disabled persons are exempt. Parking fee is 500 yen. (Original) 静かな綺麗なところでした。 真言宗のお寺で国宝も見れました。 入山料は200円、障害者ははんがく 駐車料金500円
(Translated by Google) It's surprising to find such a large temple on the scale of Kyoto's main temple on the outskirts of Osaka. It's only natural that it's a large temple, as it was the imperial palace of the Southern Court, but this temple isn't particularly well-known. The principal image in the main hall is only open to the public a few times a year, but it still has a strong impact of esoteric Buddhism. The shoin, which was once the imperial palace, is also quiet and pleasant. If you've come all the way to Kawachinagano, visiting Kanshinji Temple as well will give you a real feel for the depth of the Koyasan Highway. (Original) まさか大阪のこんな外れに京都の本山級の大寺院があるなんて、びっくりします。南朝の御所だったのですから当然のスケールでしょうが、このお寺有名ではありません。金堂のご本尊年に数回しか公開されませんが密教の強いインパクトを感じます。御所だった書院も静かでいい感じです。はるばる河内長野に来たのなら、併せて観心寺も参観すると高野街道の深みに触れます。
(Translated by Google) The Dainichi Nyorai and his attendants, Gosanze and Fudo, in the main hall are worth seeing. It was also nice to get a glimpse of them through the latticework. (Original) 金堂の大日如来と脇侍の降三世、不動は一見の価値あり。格子越しのチラ見もそれはそれでよかった。
(Translated by Google) 2024.12.08 The autumn leaves in the garden that spreads from the main temple to the inner hall fell at just the right time, and the bright red carpet-like leaves were too beautiful. Honbo Garden (former sub-temple Kanzo-in) This was the residence of the three retired emperors of the Northern Court, Kogon, Komyo, and Suko, who were imprisoned by Ashikaga Takauji. The three retired emperors later returned to Kyoto, but since it was their residence, it seems to have been one of the most influential sub-temples. It is now the inner hall of the main temple. The Tahoto pagoda in the temple area of ​​the temple grounds was built in the late Heian period and is the oldest Tahoto pagoda in Japan and the oldest wooden building in Osaka Prefecture. It is also called "Women's Koya" because women could visit, while women were prohibited from visiting Mount Koya. It is also one of the cultural properties that make up the Japan Heritage "A Town Where You Can Encounter the Middle Ages - A Treasure Trove of Medieval Cultural Heritage Protected for a Thousand Years". (Original) 2024.12.08 本坊から奥殿に広がる庭園の紅葉が タイミング良く散り、真っ赤な絨毯のような敷紅葉が美し過ぎました。 本坊庭園(旧子院 観蔵院) 足利尊氏により幽閉された北朝の光厳・光明・崇光の三上皇の御座所となりました。 三上皇とものちに京に戻られましたが御座所となっていることからも有力な子院の1つであったようです。 現在は本坊奥殿になっています。 境内の伽藍エリアの多宝塔は平安時代後期の建立で、日本最古の多宝塔であると同時に大阪府最古の木造建築物です。 高野山が女人禁制だったのに対して女性も参詣出来たことから「女人高野」とも呼ばれ 日本遺産『中世に出逢えるまち 〜千年にわたり護られてきた中世文化遺産の宝庫〜』の構成文化財のひとつでもあります。

(lol) It seems that the author has ties to Hashimoto City 🙂 There's nothing special around the station, so it actually stood out (lol) (Original) 小さな駅に降り立つと、不釣り合いな感じで「まことちゃん」が…(笑) 作者さんが橋本市に縁があるそうですね🙂 駅周辺は特に何もないので、逆に目立ってました(笑)

Take a commemorative photo and look great on Instagram♪ (Original) まことちゃん! 楳図かずおさんの代表作。 漂流教室も有名です。 橋本駅の真ん前に、 まことちゃん像あります。 記念撮影でインスタ映え♪
(Translated by Google) Mr. Umezu was born in 1933 in Takano-cho, Ito-gun, Wakayama Prefecture. Although her permanent residence is in Gojo City, Nara Prefecture, her mother apparently came to Mt. Koya for the convenience of giving birth. Umezu's father was an elementary school teacher, and when he was young, he moved around the mountainous areas of Nara Prefecture, but from the age of 6 he settled in Gojo City, where he lived until he was 27 years old, when he moved to Tokyo. Because of this, he is often introduced as ``born in Mt. Koya and raised in Gojo.'' Around that time, Mr. Umezu often traveled to Hashimoto City, which is next to Gojo City, and because of this relationship, he even published a four-panel manga called ``Odenba Diary'' in Hashimoto City's public relations magazine. Because of this connection, when the ``Ekimae Ichiban Plan'' was launched in Hashimoto in 2002 with the aim of revitalizing the shopping district in front of the station, we asked Mr. Umezu to install the ``Makoto-chan statue'', and he readily agreed. It is said that this statue was erected because of this. (Original) 楳図さんは、昭和11年、和歌山県伊都郡高野町で生まれました。本籍は奈良県五條市ですが、出産の便宜のためにお母さんが高野山に来ていたようです。 お父さんは小学校の教員で、楳図さんが幼少の頃は奈良県の山間部を転々としていたそうですが、6歳からは五條市に定住するようになり、東京へ出て行く27歳まではそこで過ごしたため、一般的には「高野山生まれ、五条育ち」として紹介されることが多いようです。 その頃、楳図さんは五條市の隣にある橋本市へもしばしば出かけていたそうで、そんな関係から一時は橋本市の広報誌に「オデンバ日記」という4コママンガを載せていたこともあるそうです。 こうした縁もあって、平成14年に橋本で駅前商店街の活性化をめざした「駅前一番計画」が立ち上がった際に楳図さんに「まことちゃん像」の設置をお願いしたところ、快諾を得られたということでこの像が建てられたのだそうです。

Really cool spot. It’s a bit out in the countryside. Not much there was in English
Unique museum in a very unique place. Very interesting if you are interested in Japanese persimmons.

(Translated by Google) I went in the first week of August. I was worried that I might have missed out on the lotuses, but there were many lotuses planted in pots and in the lotus pond, so I was still able to enjoy the beautiful lotus flowers. There is a parking lot in front of the temple that can park 5 to 6 cars, but there is also a parking lot on the west side of the temple (about 30 seconds away) and immediately next to the east side. As this is a temple for praying for good weather, there were many teruteru monks decorated in the precincts. It was a very heartwarming temple. (Original) 8月の第一週に行きました。蓮の先頃を逃していないかと心配しましたが、たくさんの蓮が鉢植え、そして蓮池にも植えられており、まだまだきれいな蓮の花を楽しむことができました。 お寺正面にも5~6台停められる駐車場がありますが、お寺の西側(30秒ほど)のところ、およびすぐ東隣にもあります。 晴れ祈願のお寺ということで、境内にはたくさんのてるてる坊主が飾られていました。 非常に心温まるお寺でした。
(Translated by Google) The temple is famous for its lotus and teruteru monks, and there is a parking lot all over the place, so it's not like you can't park there. Are there potted plants in the precincts? There are many lotuses, and there is also a water lily pot in the eternal memorial tomb. There is also a lotus pond diagonally across the grounds, where you can enjoy lotus flowers from early summer. Entrance fees and stamps are paid by yourself. (Original) 蓮とてるてる坊主が有名なお寺さんで、駐車場もアチコチにあり、停められないというものではないです。境内なは鉢植え?の蓮が多数と永代供養墓には睡蓮鉢もあります。境内斜め向かいに蓮池もあり、初夏から蓮花が楽しめます。 入山料、御朱印などはセルフでされているスタイルです。
(Translated by Google) I found this lotus temple by searching Google Maps while I was nearby buying peaches in early July. Shorenji Temple is at the end of a narrow road lined with residential areas. There is parking on both sides of the gate, with space for about 10 cars in total. As you pass through the gate where two pairs of large teru teru bozu and many small teru teru bozu are hanging, you will see teru teru bozu hanging all over the main hall. Many colorful lotus flowers are blooming brilliantly in the pond in front of the temple and in pots placed in the grounds. You can get a panoramic view of Gojo city from above the cemetery. (Original) 7月初旬、近くに桃を買いに来たついでにGoogleマップで検索して見つけた蓮のお寺。狭い住宅の中の道を進んだ先に生蓮寺はある。駐車場は門の両側に計10台程度止められそう。 2対の大きなてるてる坊主と沢山の小さなてるてる坊主が吊るされた門を潜ると本堂にも一面に吊り下げられたてるてる坊主が目に入ってくる。寺の前の池や境内に置かれた鉢にいくつもの色彩の蓮が華やかに咲いている。墓地の上からは五條市が一望できる。
(Translated by Google) The lotus flowers were in full bloom and really beautiful. I visited at the end of June. The many Teru Teru Bouquets and lotus flowers were a soothing sight. For 100 yen you can write your wish on a Teru Teru Bouquet and hang it up♪ This is one of my favorite temples and I'll definitely be visiting again. (Original) ちょうど見頃で蓮の花がほんとにキレイ 訪れたのは六月末。 たくさんのてるてる坊主に蓮の花に、癒される時間を送れました。 100円でてるてる坊主に願いを書いて飾る事も出来ます♪ お気に入りのお寺として、また寄らせて頂きます。
(Translated by Google) Lots of teru teru monks. Such a wonderful temple that I didn't know about. The Gohonzon is big. Lots of water lilies were blooming too. Next time I would like to bring my own teruteru. (Original) てるてる坊主いっぱい。知らなかったこんな素晴らしいお寺さん。 御本尊さま大きい。 睡蓮もいっぱい咲いてました。 次回は自作のてるてる持っていきたいです。
(Translated by Google) I visited the shrine and made a teruteru monk. It's a tasteful temple. I laughed because the head of the shaved head that was provided was a rolled up advertising paper. So it's 100 yen, but let's say it's okay. The lotus is very beautiful. (Original) 参拝、てるてる坊主製作しました。 味のあるお寺です。備え付けてるてる坊主の頭が広告紙を丸めたものだったので笑いました。それで100円ですが、良しとしましょう。 蓮がとても立派です。
(Translated by Google) I searched for Suiren attractions and it came up, so I went there. There were a lot of teruteru monks and it was colorful (*^^*) The water lilies were planted in pots, but the flowers were blooming beautifully. I was happy because it was the best time to see it. The goshuin stamp I wrote down was 300 yen. The inside was full of gorgeous, sparkling decorations, and the admission fee was 500 yen, but this time I took a peek and came back thinking, ``It's all gold.'' ♿✕〇 The main entrance is a few steps, but there is a slope from the side parking, so it's okay. ♿There is no parking. 🅿️You can park several cars on both sides of the main entrance of the temple. (Original) 水蓮の見所で検索したら出てきたので行ってきました。 するとてるてる坊主が沢山あってカラフルでした(*^^*) 水蓮は鉢植えでしたが、見事な花が咲いてました。ちょうど見頃だってので嬉しかったです。 書き置きの御朱印が300円でした。中はキラキラの豪華な装飾品がいっぱいで拝観料500円でしたが、今回は「金キラだなぁ」と、ちょっと覗いで帰ってきました。 ♿‪✕〇 正面入口は数段ですが、横の駐車からはスロープなので大丈夫です。 ♿パーキングはないです。 🅿️お寺の正面入口の両脇に数台停めれます。
(Translated by Google) This is a temple with very beautiful lotuses. The best time to see them is from June to early August, but right now the water lotuses are in full bloom until October. Since this is a temple for praying for good weather, many teruteru monks are hung in place of votive tablets. The scenery also has a charm like no other. If you can meet the chief priest, please talk to him. This is a temple that makes you feel glad to have visited just by getting a feel for his personality. (Original) 蓮がとても綺麗なお寺です。6月~8月上旬くらいまでは見頃ですが、今はすい蓮が10月まで見頃です。 晴れ祈願のお寺さんですので、てるてる坊主が絵馬の代わりにたくさん吊られています。その風景も他にはない魅力がありますよ。 ご住職様にお会い出来ればお話してみてください。お人柄に触れるだけでも訪ねて良かったと思えるお寺さんです。

There were only 3 other customers around 3 o'clock on Saturday, so it was a relaxing time. The inside of the hotel is clean and air conditioned. I'm curious as to whether earthenware and armor were already wearing helmets like this during the Taika Reforms, but when you play a musical instrument or clap your hands in the circular plaza, the sound reverberates amazingly. I think children will also like it. By the way, you can also put together earthenware like a puzzle (not the real thing), and Tadao Ando's architecture is also good. (Original) 五万人の森に訪問の際みつけて、改めて訪れました。土曜日の3時頃他にお客さんは3人しかおらずゆっくりみれました。館内はきれいで、エアコンもきいています。土器や甲冑なども、大化の改新の頃もうこんな兜をつけて戦をしていたのかと興味ぶかいですが、円形広場で楽器をならしたり手を叩くと音が驚くほど反響し、子供さんも喜ぶと思います。ちなみに土器をパズルのようにくみたてることもできます(本物ではない)安藤忠雄さんの建築もよいです。
(Translated by Google) A uniquely designed building. It gives a good insight into Gojo City's history. Perhaps because it had just opened, the air conditioning wasn't working well and it was a little hot. (Original) ユニークな構造の建屋 五條市の歴史がよく分かる 開館後すぐのためかエアコンの効きがイマイチで少し暑かった
(Translated by Google) The history of the Gojo area is well organized and the explanations are easy to understand. You can have a fun time observing valuable historical artifacts up close. There are also folklore exhibits related to the festival, making it a space where you can imagine and think about the history and life there.

I tried to put it in a romantic way✋😅 I couldn't post the exhibits on the internet because it was prohibited, but there were many swords and utensils excavated in Gojo City on display. Imai-cho is nearby, isn't it? There were also cityscapes and videos from that time. ♿〇 The entrance is on the 3rd floor, but there is an elevator.

(Translated by Google) It is a C-shaped museum on the third floor. To reach the entrance on the third floor, take the elevator on the left side of the front or climb the zigzag stairs. Perhaps because this is an architectural design company that loves stairs, the stairs were more prominent than the exhibits inside. It introduces the history and culture of Gojo City from the Jomon period to the end of the Edo period. I think the highlights are the history of the castle town, Eizanji Temple, and the Tenchu-gumi corner, but there are only a few exhibits. I knew from other ruins that pots were used to bury infants, but I didn't know what was buried there, but I was surprised to find a large Sue ware pot in the burial mound. (Original) Cの形をした三階の博物館で、3階の入口へは正面左手のエレベーターかジグザグ階段を登ります。階段好きの建築設計会社なのか内部も展示よりも階段がやたら目立つ所でした。 縄文時代〜幕末までの五條市の歴史・文化を掻い摘んで紹介されています。城下町の歴史、栄山寺や天誅組のコーナーが見所かと思いますが展示は少なめです。 乳幼児の埋葬に壺を使用していたのは他の遺跡で知っていたのですが何を埋葬したか知りませんが古墳で見つかった須恵器の大壺にはびっくりしました。

Definitely worth the stop, it was fairly empty when we visited during a weekend in October. There seemed to be a religious rite of passage that was going on during that time. I think there’s two ways to get into shrine grounds, but the parking lot from the side gives you the best shot of the unique bridge in my opinion.
Surprised how many people were there when we visited on a random day! Bridge was closed for being slippery, there was a priest who wrote my shuin in the book for ¥500. They had a picnic area too and udon in a shop by the two big free parking lots.
A sacred shrine with that gives a calm and peaceful experience. The autumn colours are still nice but past the peak.
A beautiful shrine that is usually quiet. Every season is beautiful, and in summer it is cooler than places at sea level, such as Wakayama City or Iwade City etc.
Very peaceful and pretty place

(Translated by Google) Pets are not allowed, so the lawn is beautiful and the promenade is full of cherry blossoms, which was soothing (^^) There are also swings and a slide, so I think it's a good place to go with small children. Starting from December 1st of this year (2022), the facility will be completely non-smoking, and the ashtrays placed here and there are nicely decorated with flowers, making it more comfortable than before ^_^ (Original) ペット禁止なので、芝生も綺麗で、遊歩道には桜がいっぱいで癒やされました(^^)ブランコとすべり台もあるので、小さい子どもさんと行くのもいいと思います。 今年(2022)12月1日から「施設内全面禁煙」となり、所々にあった灰皿にはうまくお花が飾られていて、以前よりも居心地がよくなりました^_^
good👍 I enjoyed watching my kids enjoy playing tennis.
(Translated by Google) There are grounds for soccer and baseball, a gymnasium, a tennis field, and a walking course. The only play equipment is a small slide and swing. There are two toilets, but the one near the parking lot does not have a multipurpose toilet. It's a good place for walking and exercising. (Original) サッカー・野球のできるグラウンド、体育館、テニス場があり、散歩コースもあります。遊具は小さな滑り台とブランコのみ。トイレは2か所にありますが、駐車場近くにあるのは多目的トイレがありません。 散歩や運動目的にはいいところです。
(Translated by Google) This is a full-fledged park with a baseball field where you can play night games. It was occupied on my first visit on Sunday afternoon. There was no one there on my second visit on Wednesday afternoon. (Original) ナイターもできる野球場のある本格的な公園です。初訪の日曜日のお昼は使われていました。2回目訪問の水曜日のお昼は誰もいませんでした
(Translated by Google) It's a beautiful park Mainly used at baseball stadiums (Original) 綺麗な公園です 主に野球場で使用しました
(Translated by Google) The cherry blossoms are in full bloom. There is also a lawn so you can enjoy it with your children. There is also a baseball field on the premises, so you can watch baseball games on Sundays. (Original) 桜が満開です。芝生もあるので子供連れでも楽しめます。敷地内には野球場もあるので日曜日は草野球観戦もできます。
(Translated by Google) As a baseball ground, there is no black soil in the infield, and it is hard like a sports field. The distance to the outfield stands is wider than in a typical baseball stadium. There is a slight distance from the parking lot to the stands, and the parking lot is at the back of the outfield. Restrooms are located next to the outdoor outfield and in the indoor gymnasium at the back of the parking lot. (Original) 野球グランドとしては内野の黒土はなく、運動場のような硬さ。 外野スタンドまでの距離は、一般的な球場に比べて広め。 駐車場からスタンドまでの距離が若干あり、駐車場は外野の奥。 トイレは屋外外野横と駐車場奥の室内体育館にあり。
(Translated by Google) I think the coffee at my friend's coffee shop is the best at any coffee shop I go to. (Original) 友達の喫茶店でコーヒーが私の行く喫茶店では、1番美味いと思います。

(Translated by Google) This temple is located in a quiet area deep in the mountains of Yoshino Town, built on top of a fine stone wall. This is a rare temple where the Fugen Bodhisattva, who is known for prolonging life and longevity, is enshrined, and it is also a shrine to the Hidden Temple Sacred Site. Although it is difficult to see from the outside, the main hall is quite large and has a magnificent inner sanctuary. It is a quiet temple that you will want to visit over and over again. (Original) 吉野町の静かな山深い場所にあります、立派な石垣の上に建つお寺です。「延命長寿」の普賢菩薩様が祀られている珍しいお寺で、“隠れ寺霊場”の札所にもなっています。外からでは分かりにくいのですが、本堂はかなり広く、立派な内陣となっています。何回でも訪れたくなるような静かなお寺です。
(Translated by Google) Although it is a small temple, the beautiful Fugen Bodhisattva is enshrined in the main hall. The main hall is deep and looks small from the outside, so it is best to go up to the main hall and worship. It's a temple where few people come, so you can enjoy the view in peace and quiet. (Original) 小さな寺だけど、立派な本堂にいい感じの普賢菩薩さんが祭られている。 奥行きがある本堂なので、外からだと小さく見えるので、本堂に上がって拝むのが良い。 ほとんど人が来ないお寺なので、静かにゆっくりと拝観できる。
(Translated by Google) This is a temple whose principal image is the extremely valuable Fugen Enmei Bodhisattva. We encourage you to pray. (Original) たいへん貴重な「普賢延命菩薩」が本尊のお寺さまです。祈祷をお受けになることをお勧めします。
(Translated by Google) It happens every year. (Original) 毎年おまいりています。
(Translated by Google) Koyasan Shingon sect. This is a very rare temple whose principal image is Fugen Enmei Bodhisattva. The mantra was also Ombazara Yusei Sowaka, not Onsan Maya Satoban. The priest and his wife warmly welcomed us. Sorry for the long time, please visit again. thank you very much. (Original) 高野山真言宗。御本尊様が普賢延命菩薩様と大変珍しいお寺様です。 御真言もオンサンマヤサトバンではなくオンバザラユセイソワカでした。 和尚さんと奥さんが温かくお迎え下さりました。長時間すみませんでした、またお参りさせて下さい。ありがとうございました。
(Translated by Google) Small and gentle feeling Please enter the main hall 11-faced Kannon I saw the 20-handed Kannon statue. It was a historical temple. (Original) こじんまりと優しい感じ 本堂に入れて頂き 11面観音様 20手観音様拝見しました 歴史あるお寺でした
(Translated by Google) When my mother was little, she often played in the shrine grounds. I'm going to have surgery soon, but Fugen-san appeared in my dream, so I wanted him to pray for me❗️. I visited them late in the evening, but they opened the main hall and responded politely. thank you very much. I hope the surgery is successful m(__)m (Original) 母が小さい頃、よく境内で遊んだそうです。近々手術するんですが、夢に普賢さんが現れたので、祈祷してほしい❗️って。夕方遅くにお邪魔しましたが、本堂を開け丁寧に対応して頂きました。ありがとうございました。手術が成功しますようにm(__)m
(Translated by Google) God of the Eyes: A quiet place deep in the mountains (Original) 目の神様 山奥で静かな場所

(Translated by Google) A dam lake that suddenly appears in the mountains❗ You can enjoy beautiful scenery during the cherry blossom season 🌸 (Original) 山の中に突然現れるダム湖❗ 桜の季節は綺麗な風景が楽しめます🌸
(Translated by Google) The location is good, but the water is running low. Illegally dumped garbage accumulates at the edge of the dam. sad. (Original) ロケーションはいいのだが水の減水が激しい。ダムの端には不法に投棄されたゴミが溜まっている。悲しい。
(Translated by Google) It was quiet. (Original) 静かでした。
