A very famous temple at Mount Hiezan. The main temple is unfortunately under extensive renovation and refurnishing works. So technically you can't actually "see it", even though the prayer hall is still accessible.

The surrounding areas of the main hall is "peppered" with smaller temple halls, pagodas and living quarters.

Whilst the journey to the temple can be pretty enjoyable - cable car, fantastic view from the observation building, a walk through the forest - the temple itself is pretty "bland". It doesn't exude that spiritual and enlightening atmosphere of the bigger temples in Kyoto.

Nonetheless I would still recommend a visit to the temple just for the experience of the journey if not the...

比叡山延暦寺・東塔エリアにある塔で、平成元年に再建された比較的新しい建物です。天台宗の教義である「一乗仏教（すべての教えをひとつにまとめる）」の象徴で、法華経の教えを広めたことにちなみ、「法華総持院」と名づけられています。 高さは約30メートルあり、朱塗りの美しい塔は青空や新緑、紅葉、雪景色など自然の中で映える存在。現代に蘇った伝統建築としても見どころの一つです。 比叡山延暦寺の中でも、朱色が鮮やかに映える法華総持院東塔は特に印象に残りました。平成に入ってから再建されたとは思えないほど、歴史的な重みを感じさせる造りで、周囲の自然とも美しく調和しています。静けさの中にそびえ立つ塔はとても神秘的でした。比叡山の中では比較的立ち寄る人が少なく、静かに過ごせる穴場スポットでもあります。写真映えも良く、紅葉の季節や雪景色の時期には特に美しいとのこと。天台宗の教えや「法華経」に興味のある方にとっては、精神的にも深い学びを得られる場所だと感じました。
