Fabulous memories here.

Good temple

(Translated by Google) Also known as "Naritasan Fudoson," this temple is famous for its prayers for traffic safety and for being the place where celebrities come to throw beans on Setsubun (the end of winter). It's a branch temple of Naritasan Shinshoji Temple in Narita City, Chiba Prefecture, but it was originally built on the site of Kori Amusement Park, the predecessor to Hirakata Park. It was founded in 1934 (Showa 9). There are signs posted all over the place that say something like "Money governs everything in the afterlife," which is a bit disheartening, but if you accept that this is the site of the original amusement park, then the commercialism doesn't bother you. I wonder what "Shokonzuka" is? I thought it was a mound for burying jokes that didn't go over well, but I was wrong. It was apparently built to console the spirits of comedians who dedicated themselves to the development of comedy. I wonder if Kanbi, Knock, and Yasushi are also here. (Original) 別名「成田山不動尊」という名の寺院で、交通安全の祈願と、節分の時に有名人が来て豆撒きをする所で有名です。 千葉県成田市にある成田山新勝寺の別院ですが、元々は「ひらパー」の前進である「香里遊園地」の跡地に寺院を建立したそうです。創建は1934（昭和9）年。 何やら「あの世の沙汰も金次第」的な掲示が、あちこちに掲げられていて少しゲンナリしますが、「ここは元々遊園地があった場所だ」と割り切れば、その商魂も気になりません。 「笑魂塚」って何じゃろかいな？ ウケなかったネタを葬る為の塚かと思ったのですが違いました。 笑いの道の発展に尽くした芸人の霊を慰めるために建てられたそうです。 寛美さんや、ノックさんや、やすしさんもここにいるんやろか。

Nice Shrine. Not sure of the purpose of it. This is where the tree that grows into the Kayashima train Station is located. Sign at entrance says “Worshipers Only Alllowed.” Translated it only after I was inside taking photos for about 15 minutes. Not staffed.

(Translated by Google) It is recognized as a shrine that protects the camphor tree located below Kayashima Station. Why not go there at least once after getting off the station? There are cherry blossoms in the Dobu River right next to it, and the cherry blossoms are beautiful. (Original) 萱島駅の下にあるクスノキを守る神社と言う認識。駅降りて直ぐにあるの下一度くらい行ってみては？すぐ横のドブ川に桜があって桜は綺麗です

(Translated by Google) [Kayashima Shrine] January 1, 2021 This shrine is located under the elevated tracks at Keihan Railway's Kayashima Station. Since the shrine is only open during the New Year holidays, I was only able to receive a goshuin (stamp) at that time. (Original) 【萱島(かやしま)神社】2021.1.1 京阪電車 萱島駅高架下にある神社で、正月にしか関係者がいないので、その時にしか御朱印は頂けませんでした。

(Translated by Google) I visited Kayashima Shrine ⛩. Unfortunately, Ramen Mizuku was closed, so I went to a standing udon restaurant in front of the station, but the standing udon restaurants in Osaka are of high quality and delicious. It was. As I had heard, the shrine ⛩ was a beautiful large tree that pierced through the station and extended upwards. I thought it would be better to take a photo from above, but I will do it again. I took a picture of Kayashima Bridge, which was featured in the anime version of Jose, the tiger, and the fish. I live nearby but this was my first time here. (Original) 萱島神社さん⛩へお参りさせていただきました、ラーメンみずくさんは残念ながら閉まっていたので駅前の立ち食いうどん屋さんっぽいところに入りましたが、大阪の立ち食いうどん屋さんはレベルが高く美味しかったです。神社⛩は聞いた通りりっぱな大木で駅を貫いてグングン上に伸びてました。上から撮った方がいい時思いましたが又にします。ブラブラとアニメ版のジョゼと虎と魚たちででていた萱島の橋の写真を撮って来ました。近くに住んでいますが初めて来ました。

(Translated by Google) This shrine is located under the elevated Keihan Railway Kayashima Station and is famous for the shape of a camphor tree that protrudes from the station premises. It was surprising to see a tree growing on the station platform. (Original) 京阪電車「萱島駅」の高架下にあり、楠が駅構内から突き出た形が有名な神社です。 駅のホームに樹が生えていてこれは驚きです。

(Translated by Google) Directly below Kayashima Station on the Keihan Main Line! ! A shrine in The sight of the sacred camphor tree towering over the Keihan station platform is majestic. The precinct itself is small and just under the station platform, so it has a somewhat lonely atmosphere, but the large camphor tree alone is worth seeing. There is no parking space at the shrine. The area is a residential area with narrow roads, and there is a coin parking nearby, but I don't recommend visiting by car. There are many shrines at the neighboring stations, Owada Station and Neyagawashi Station, and you can visit them multiple times within walking distance, so it might be best to visit them by train and take a walk around them. (Original) 京阪本線、萱島駅直下！！にある神社。ご神木のクスノキの大樹が、京阪の駅ホームを貫いて聳え立つ姿は雄々しいです。 境内そのものは、こじんまりと、駅ホーム下にあるだけなので少し寂しいくらいの雰囲気ですが、クスノキの大樹だけでも見る価値あります。 神社に駐車スペースはありません。 周辺は狭小道路行きかう住宅街、コインパーキングは近辺にありますが、車での参詣はお薦めしにくいかな・・・。 隣駅の大和田駅、寝屋川市駅ともに神社が多く、徒歩圏内で複数回れるから、電車で訪問して、テクテク散歩が一番イイかも。

(Translated by Google) A large sacred tree that runs from the shrine under the elevated railway to the station platform overhead. Camphor tree. A unique situation in Japan Isn't there? Local people are trying to leave something behind. The large camphor tree is truly magnificent. Three in size Although it is inferior to the Kungaikusu of the island shrine, it is smooth and heavenly. The summer that stretches straight towards you is cool. (Original) 高架下の神社から頭上の駅ホームを貫く御神木の大 クスノキ。日本でも唯一無二のシチュエーションで はないでしょうか。地元の人たちが何とか残そうと した大クスノキはさすがに立派です。大きさでは三 島神社のクンガイクスに劣りますが、すらっと天に 向かって真っすぐに伸びるサマはカッコ好いです。

Beautiful and familiar park. Close to shopping mall and JR rail station. There is BBQ garden with cherry brossom.

Nice park. Toilets next to the basketball courts need cleaning

Very good walk, views, scenic, good sanctuary place , good rest

Nice

New—menu ……

good

(Translated by Google) We have been taking care of our children since their first visit. It enshrines the three pillars of the shrine: Emperor Ojin, Hachiman-sama (Goddess of Hachiman who wards off evil spirits and safe childbirth), Michizane Sugawara (God of Tenshi of learning), and Renko Ibarata (God of civil engineering and construction). It is a shrine with refreshing air. You can go inside by car. We also have cleansing salt and amulets. (Original) 子供の初参りの時からお世話になっています。応神天皇、(厄除け・安産の八幡様）・菅原道真公（学問の天神様）・茨田連衫子（土木建築の神様）の３柱を御祀りしておられます。すがすがしい空気の神社です。車で中まで入ることができます。お清めのお塩やお守りもあります。

(Translated by Google) It is a 15-minute walk southeast from Korien Station on the Keihan Line. Tomorogi Shrine was founded in 1456 when Emperor Tsuchimikado built Hachiman Shrine as a guardian deity when he was building his new residence. The main deities enshrined are Kamiyomata Wake no Mikoto (ward off evil), Sugawara no Michizane (scholarship), and Ibaraki no Muraji Sugiko (civil engineering and architecture). Historically, the shrine was burned down during the succession dispute between Hatakeyama Yoshinari and Hatakeyama Nagamasa, which led to the Onin War, and only Hachiman Shrine remained. In the Meiji period, Wakayama Shrine, Nihonmatsu Shrine, and Oma Shrine merged with Hachiman Shrine, and the name Tomorogi Shrine was chosen after the place name. The approach to the shrine is lined with white torii gates and stairs, and there is a temizuya (purification fountain), Hotei statue, and a spring called Gosho-mizu behind it. Perhaps it is a remnant of the imperial family. At the top of the stairs, there is a worship hall, and within the grounds is a Jogan Inari shrine. Kurainatama-no-kami is the god of bountiful harvests and prosperous business. The refreshing feeling after climbing the stairs is very pleasant 😂 (Original) 京阪電車香里園駅から東南へ徒歩15分。ともろぎ神社は康正2年(1456)土御門天皇が新邸の造営の時、鎮護神として八幡宮を創建したのが始りだそうです。 主祭神に神誉田別尊(厄除け)菅原道真(学問)茨田連杉子(土木建築)を祀っています。 歴史を見ると応仁の乱のきっかけとなる畠山義就と畠山長政の家督争いから社殿が焼失、八幡宮だけが残り、明治になって若山神社、二本松神社、大間神社が八幡神社と合併、地名にちなんで友呂岐神社となる。 白い鳥居と階段が続く参道に手水舎、布袋様、後ろには御所水と呼ぶ湧水。皇室の名残りでしょうか。 階段を登りきると拝殿が有り、境内には成願稲荷社が有ります。倉稲魂神は五穀豊穣、商売繁盛の神。階段を登った後の清々しさが気持ち良いですよ😂

(Translated by Google) As a general rule, old amulets and amulets should be placed at the shrine where they were given, but if there are circumstances such as being far away, I have heard that it is okay to leave them at a nearby shrine, but the temple at Mt. Narita It is an unusual shrine that does not accept amulets or amulets from other shrines, even if it is out of the question. Be careful. (Original) 古いお札やお守りは、授かった神社にお納めするのが原則ですが、遠方等事情があれば、近くの神社に納めさせていただいても良いと聞いているのですけれど、お寺である成田山のものは論外としても、他の神社のお札やお守りもお断りという変わった神社です。注意しましょう。

(Translated by Google) I entered the precinct from the back (east side) by car and parked. The approach is on the west side and you have to go down the stairs and re-enter. Although it is a small shrine, it feels like it is very well taken care of. I received a stamp. (Original) 自動車で裏側(東側)から境内に入り駐車させていただきました。参道は西側にあり階段を降りて入り直しました。小さい神社ですがとても大切にされている感じがします。ご朱印をいただきました。

(Translated by Google) While walking, I entered the shrine grounds from the back and thought it was a compact shrine, but the atmosphere is better from the well-maintained Omotesando side. I received a goshuin stamp. (Original) 歩きで、裏側から境内に入りコンパクトな神社だなと思いましたが、整備されてる表参道側からの雰囲気がいいです。 御朱印いただきました。

(Translated by Google) It is enshrined near Naritasan Fudoson. The grounds are well maintained. There are high stairs on the west side, and are there some undocumented people who use the east gate as a shortcut to visit Narita-san? There was a sign saying, ``Shrines are not a loophole. Those who do not wish to visit the shrine are not allowed...'' is the nuance. Let's certainly pray to God. (Original) 成田山不動尊の近くに鎮座。よく手入れが行き届いている境内。西側に高い階段、東門は成田さんへの御参りの近道で利用する不届き者がいるのでしょうか？張り紙がありました、『神社は抜け道ではありません。参拝しない方はお断り…』というニュアンスのもの。確かに神様にお祈り申しあげましょう。

(Translated by Google) A shrine located in front of the former Seibo Girls' School, about 8-10 minutes walk from Korien Station. (Original) 香里園駅から８歩いて10分位の旧聖母女学院手前にある神社

(Translated by Google) Sumiyoshi Taisha is nearby, but if you are too busy to go there, please visit this shrine in the middle of Osaka. Here is the shipping industry (Original) 住吉大社は近いのですが、忙しくてそこでまで出かけられないという方は、大阪の真ん中にあるこちらにお参り下さいということです 海運業界はこちらです

Cherry Blossom season is quiet compared to other super crowded sites. It’s a must visit if you love ancient architectures & history. It felt like travel back in time of 1000 years while standing there in the rain & enjoy the sight of the pagodas. Very zen & relaxing when there are less people around!

Yakushiji Temple (薬師寺), located in Nara, Japan, is one of the most significant and ancient Buddhist temples in the country. Originally constructed in 680 CE during the Asuka period by Emperor Tenmu, the temple was built to pray for the recovery of his wife, Empress Jitō. Dedicated to Yakushi Nyorai, the Buddha of Medicine and Healing, the temple symbolizes hope and spiritual healing. Yakushiji is renowned for its symmetrical layout and stunning architecture, epitomizing the classical style of early Japanese Buddhism. The temple complex includes several iconic structures, most notably the East Pagoda (東塔, Tōtō), a three-story pagoda dating back to the 8th century. This is the only original structure that survived multiple fires and is celebrated for its elegant design and intricate details. The West Pagoda (西塔, Saitō) and the Kondō (金堂, Main Hall) have been meticulously reconstructed to preserve their historical and spiritual significance. Inside the Kondō, visitors can find an extraordinary bronze triad statue of Yakushi Nyorai flanked by two Bodhisattvas, exemplifying artistic mastery from the Hakuho period. These statues are considered national treasures and reflect the deep devotion to Buddhist teachings. In addition to its architectural and artistic treasures, Yakushiji Temple serves as an active center for Buddhist worship and meditation. The temple’s tranquil atmosphere and rich history make it a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a must-visit destination for those seeking to explore Japan’s cultural and spiritual heritage.

This is a peaceful temple belonging to the Yogācāra school of Buddhism. It features a beautiful pagoda and murals depicting scenes from the Great Tang Dynasty’s journeys to the Western Regions. It’s a great place for those interested in Buddhist teachings and history. Legend has it that relics of Xuanzang are enshrined here.

Marvelous, an over 13-hundred years old stupa and other rebuilt buildings show us ancient views.

July 5th 2025 I attended a group tour organised by Nara International Citizen centre, along with students from NAIST and Nara University. We went to three places, Yakushi-Ji is our first stop. We were just in time to see the buddhist monks performing their prayers (as you can see from the video). This place temple specifically feels oddly calming, reminding me of Todai-ji. As you walk around, enjoying the lotus flowers and ancient architectures. Hopefully, you'll feel as peaceful and relaxed as I did!

Great ancient Buddhist temple in Japan. Two Three-storied pagodas are beautiful!! Gilt bronze Buddhist statue of "Bhaisajyaguru Triad" is very impressive.

Seem most temple in Japan is nice ..This temple is too... The left side pagoda has these bronze relief scenes inside of Buddha that are incredible (no photos allowed). It’s a rather large complex with much to view, but seems like U could cover it in 1/2hours...

This was not the place I wanted to go! Thanks GOOGLE for sending me on a few hours wild goose chase!!!

(Translated by Google) It is the only Aishi tumulus in Kitakawachi, located on a slope slightly up the mountain, which is not usually popular. It is said to date from around 700 AD, and since there are no similar burial mounds in the area, various assumptions can be made. It is very interesting as it is similar in shape to the Asuka Ishibutai Tumulus in the south of Nara. (Original) 普段は人気も少ない少し山を入った斜面に在る北河内に唯一のあ石古墳です。西暦700年頃のものとされており、周辺に同様の古墳がないことからも色々と想像される。奈良の南にある明日香の石舞台古墳にも形状が似ておりとても興味深い。

(Translated by Google) Visited in October 2025. There is no parking lot. There is enough space for one or two cars in the corner of the observation deck in front. Please note that it is not connected to the hiking trail heading towards Mt. Hidaka, one of the Hoshida Mountain Ranges! (Original) 2025年10月訪問。 駐車場ないです。 手前の展望台の隅に、 1台か2台程度、駐車できる程度。 星田連山の1つ、日高山方面へ、 登山道とは繋がっていませんので、 ご注意を！！

(Translated by Google) The burial mound is located halfway up a small mountain, and I think you could get close to it if you were in a light car, but I gave up midway because the road was so narrow in a regular car. Time parking on the west side is 200 yen per hour, and it's a 5-6 minute walk from there. The photo shows the view from the front of the tomb, but since it was evening, I kept looking at it until it sank. It's a very scenic place! (Original) 古墳は小山の中腹にあり、軽自動車なら近くまで行けると思いますが、普通自動車の私は道が狭くて途中で諦めました。 西側のタイムパーキングは１時間200円で、そこに止めて歩いて5〜6分です。 写真は古墳の手前から見える景色ですが、夕方だったので沈むまでずっと見ていました。とても景色の良い場所です！

(Translated by Google) This is an extremely impressive horizontal stone chamber. It's probably the grave of a powerful person around here. There is a place like an observation deck nearby. Did the buried king 1,500 years ago also see people's houses from here? (Original) 凄い迫力の横穴式石室です。 この辺りの権力者のお墓でしょう。 近くに展望台みたいなところがあります。 1500年前の被葬者の王様もここから人家を見てたのでしょうか？

(Translated by Google) This is the only one, but it's good ♪ It was mysterious due to the adjustment of Saiyo. I would like you to see it as a set with Neya Kofun.It's like traveling through the future and the past...As a bonus, there is a spectacular view overlooking all of Northern Osaka from the hill opposite Uchikami Shrine. (Original) コレしかない､でもそれがいい♪西陽の加減で神秘的だった。寝屋古墳とセットで見て欲しい｡未来と過去を旅したよう…　オマケで、打上神社向かいの高台から北大阪一円が見渡せる絶景がある。

(Translated by Google) You can enter by car, but it's so narrow that if you take a wrong turn, you'll have to back up. Enter the shrine and walk for about 2 minutes to get there. Please note that you cannot get there using Google Maps or navigation. (Original) 車でも入っていけますが道を間違えたらバックで戻らないといけない感じの細さです。 神社の横を入って2分ぐらい歩けば着きます。 Googleマップやナビではたどり着けませんので気をつけて。

Easy to find and great atmosphere inside. Bright and clean space.

Great facility and a lot of local musical events.

(Translated by Google) It was a beautiful hall with a white theme. Although it's not very spacious, I felt that the sound resonated well. Good access near the station. Also, the parking lot next door costs up to 880 yen, which I think is one of the cheapest in the neighborhood. (Original) 白を基調としたきれいなホールでした。 それほど広くはありませんが、音がよく響くように感じました。 駅近でアクセスが良いです。また、隣は駐車場で最大880円と近隣でも安い方かなと思います。

(Translated by Google) I participated in "Yasuko Expo 2025," an event hosted by Princess Yasuko, the world's oldest underground idol. It was a spacious and beautiful theater. (Original) 世界最高齢地下アイドルのプリンセスやすこさんのイベント｢やすこエキスポ2025｣に参加させていただきました、広くて綺麗な劇場でした

(Translated by Google) It's close to the station and the shopping street, and the old-fashioned coffee shop in the shopping street is convenient for a meal before a concert. I go to the Arcas Hall once a year for a mandolin concert, and the seats are incredibly comfortable, so it's a great way to relax both body and mind. (Original) 駅と商店街の近くで、商店街の昔ながらの喫茶店が、コンサート前の食事に便利です。アルカスホールは、年に一度マンドリンコンサートにいきますが、椅子の座り心地が最高に良いので、心も体も癒されます。

(Translated by Google) Apparently there's no parking lot at Arcas Hall. There's a parking lot behind it, but I was surprised to see that it costs 700 yen per hour! (No maximum charge) A nearby parking lot charges 200 yen for 20 minutes with no maximum charge, so this might be reasonable, but there are other cheaper parking lots out there, so it might be worth looking around. The hall itself was very clean and tidy, making it a nice hall. (Original) アルカスホールの駐車場はないらしいです。。 裏に駐車場がありますが、1時間700円と書いてありびっくりしました！(最大料金なし) 近隣の駐車場が20分200円最大料金なしとかなので、妥当なのかもしれませんが他にお安い駐車場がありますので探してみるといいかもです。 ホール自体はすごく綺麗で清潔感があり、良いホールでした。

(Translated by Google) We use this hall every year for our ensemble's concerts. The hall is beautiful and the acoustics are perfect for our group, with excellent volume and balance. My only complaint is that we can't make any sound in the waiting room, but other than that it's close to perfect. (Original) 毎年、合奏団体の演奏会で利用させていただいています。 ホールはキレイだし、音響もうちの団体には合っていてボリュームもバランスも抜群です。 控室で音が出せないのだけが不満ですが、それ以外は満点に近いですね。

(Translated by Google) It's nice to have a local feel. In the summer, there is a local fireworks display organized by the members of the neighborhood association. good. (Original) ローカル感満載でよい。 夏には、町内会のおじさま達による、ローカルな花火大会がある。良い。

(Translated by Google) Not much has changed from 40 years ago. There was no particular play equipment, but they were playing with everything. (Original) 40年前からあまり変わっていません。 特に遊具もありませんが、何でも遊んでいました。

The food is great and I love the tea! It's beautiful and very calm. They have an english menu aswell!

Wonderful is the only word to describe this place. Run by lovely people and the best matcha tiramisu in this world

(Translated by Google) It was a great place to take a break in Horie! Although it was a Sunday afternoon, I was able to get in easily without waiting. The price is a little high. Drinks and sweets cost about 1,500 yen per person. However, it is relatively quiet and you can forget the hustle and bustle of the city. (Original) 堀江で休憩するにはとっても良かった！ 日曜日の午後だけど、待たずにすんなり入れました。価格は少しお高め。 ドリンクとスイーツで1人1500円くらい。 でも割と静かで都会の喧騒を忘れられます。

(Translated by Google) I used it at a cafe. This is a temple cafe located in the stylish city of Horie where you can feel the stylish and wonderful Japanese wabi-sabi. There are seats inside and on the terrace, and if there is space, you can choose your favorite seat. Due to the large number of inbound customers The menu table is written in alphabetical English. Of course, it seems that English is available. I think it's an oasis in the city where you can enjoy delicious tea such as gyokuro, matcha, and hojicha. (Original) カフェで利用させて頂きました。 オシャレな堀江の街中にあるオシャレで素敵な日本の侘び寂びを感じられる寺カフェです。 店内とテラス席が用意されていて、空きがあれば好きなお席を選べると思います。 インバウンドの客層が多いこともあり メニュー表はアルファベットの英語表記です。 もちろん英語対応可能みたいです。 玉露やお抹茶、ほうじ茶など美味しいお茶を堪能出来るまさに都会の中のオアシスだと思います😊

(Translated by Google) Today I went to the Nanata Festival at Manpukuji Temple. In addition to Nagashi Somen, the afternoon session featured various workshops and shaved ice. During the evening we went, the courtyard was decorated with atmospheric candlelight, and we sipped wine while listening to live music. Is this a temple? The more I thought, the better the atmosphere. The children also enjoyed the Tanabata Festival. There is also a cafe here, and I would like to come again! (Original) 今日は「萬福寺」の七タまつりに行きました。 昼の部では「流しそうめん」のほか、各種ワークショップ、かき氷などでもりがったそうです。私たちの行った夜の部は、中庭が雰囲気のあるキャンドルの灯火で彩られ、ライブ演奏を聴きながらワインをいただきました。 ここがお寺？と思うほど、いい雰囲気。子供たも七夕祭りを楽しんでました。 ここは、普段からカフェもやっていて、また来たいと思っています！

(Translated by Google) I had some delicious tea. There was a bit of a wait, but the seats outside were comfortable. As for the system, you first talk to the staff at the restaurant and have them reserve a seat for you, then go to the cash register to order, and wait at your seat for your order to arrive. If you are looking for a little relaxation in this area, I highly recommend it. The wind was very pleasant. The cold brewed tea had a strong taste and was satisfying. While there are many shops that serve cold-brew tea and the taste is bland, this one had a proper taste and was delicious. (Original) 美味しいお茶を頂けました。少し待ちましたが、外の席で快適でした。システムとしてはまずお店の人に声をかけて席を確保してもらってから、レジに注文しに行き、席でオーダーしたものがくるのを待つ感じです。 この辺りで少し癒しを求めるならば、とてもおすすめです。風がとても心地よかったです。 冷たい水出しのお茶もしっかりとした味で満足でした。結構水出しのお茶を提供しているお店で味が薄くなっていたり、そう感じるお店が多い中、ここはちゃんとした味をだしていておいしかったです。

(Translated by Google) Temples offering refreshments The manager is very cute and enthusiastic Food is only available from Thursday to Saturday! (Original) 提供茶點的寺院 主理人非常可愛熱情 食物僅在星期四至六提供喔！

Hiked here from Shigisanguchi on the other side of the mountains. Wonderful home and so magical to enter the temple grounds from the peak. The temple complex is breathtaking - so many stunning views together with the cute tiger symbolism, this place gives you a great feeling. I spent a good 2-3 hours strolling through the various parts of the temple. Highly recommend heading to the peak for the best views.

Wonderful shrines and statues, we almost didn't go because it was close to closing but I'm so glad we did. Even just an hour here is worth your time and the old couple running the shop were very nice to still serve us ice cream 20mins before closing, delicious btw and we got to eat it while waiting for the bus. We bought a tiger themed omomori and prayed at some of the stations, donated at all the ones we passed. Very beautiful space

Chogosonshiji is a temple full of tigers. These are not the scary, man-eating type, however, but spirit animals that offer blessings to visitors. There is also a scroll that may be considered one of the world's first manga. The temple is most easily accessed from Oji Station on the Kintetsu Line. From the north exit, you can take a bus bound for Shigi-sammon. The temple is a five-minute walk from the Shigi-ohashi bus stop. It is also possible to ride a cable car up the mountain from Shigisanguchi Station. We visited it on August 2024 during our stay at Gyokuzoin. I suggest to visit it by night to get an even best experience -so magical with all the lights.

Beautiful temple complex with a large tiger statue, overlooking a really nice valley. The place feels quite secluded and peaceful. The morning ceremony at 6:30 can be attended by anyone. Recommend to register in advance if you want to go inside to see the monks up close during the ceremony (not a mush though). This complex is quite large, and boasts what was said to be the largest Jizo statue in Japan.

Amazing temple, very low foot traffic when we went mid day on a Monday. So glad we took the day off work and came here, it was well worth the trip from Tokyo to see. Incredibly peaceful and the autumn colors and breeze made for an extra special trip. Now (early November) through December 2025 there is a special Osaka Hanshin Tigers goshuin only available in the main temple at the very top.

It's quite far from everything but it's worth it for someone who wants some calm. Not many tourists and a lot to see! Free entry

We spent a night at this temple, and it was a wonderful experience. We enjoyed a traditional Japanese dinner and breakfast, as well as a beautiful ceremony with the monks. Staying overnight lets you experience the temple in total quiet and witness both sunrise and sunset. I highly recommend this place for its beauty and unique cultural experience.
