Not one of the popular tourist attractions, but a definite must visit as the temple is quite peaceful and you feel like one.

I was even one of the lucky ones to go there during the Birthday celebration of Lord Buddha and partake in the ceremony by pouring tea over the statue of Lord Buddha and watching the other rituals being performed.

I highly recommend to keep this on your list when you visit...

Might not be as perfect and popular as other shrines and temples in Kyoto. That’s what I like the most, least crowds. Ume season started, there’s a perfect shaped pink ume tree at the entrance. Great to take a seat at the temple for some reflection and zen moments.

Do take a stroll around the area, you’ll discover nice cafes...

2024/2/8 2年前は工事中、御影堂も阿弥陀堂も拝観出来なかった。今年は大丈夫です ! 西本願寺と良く似てますね。"見真"の縁額に親鸞聖人像、知恵によって真理を見極めよと、明治天皇から贈られた称号という。奥に親鸞聖人の像が見えます。能登半島地震の復興を願い手を合わせます。 御影堂から阿弥陀堂への板の廊下、そして手すりを見ると「埋め木」が見えます。入口の階段の手すりは曲がった木を使用しているのですね。 今年は御影堂から、三門を借景に梅の写真も…又違った雰囲気が楽しめますよ😊 2022/3/12 京都駅から徒歩15分と一番近い梅の名所です。西本願寺の手前に有ります。 創建建暦2年(1212)親鸞が山科に家を建てたのが始まりで、正しく法を興し、栄えさすとの願いからこの"こうしょうじ"の名前が付いたそうです。 本尊に阿弥陀如来を祀る大きな寺院です。 堀川通りから見ると、西本願寺の伽藍と間違える?その通り、本堂は阿弥陀堂、そして渡り廊下も有り御影堂も… 残念ながら、今は工事中故に本堂の中へは遠慮して、三門前の美しい紅白の梅を無料で見させて頂きました。石灯籠を通して見る景色も成る程と納得した次第です。 カメラを持った人がチラホラと…そう言えば、2017年、20代の華園真慶さんが門主、話題となった寺院ですね、良い景色、有り難う御座いました。
