Hello everyone in the world. This temple is the tomb of the emperors before the 5th generation of the current emperor. It is the most precious temple in Japan. When you visit, you can feel the height of the guests. The chrysanthemum emblem carved on the gate is the emperor's emblem. Since the first Emperor Jimmu, the emperor has been praying for the peace of people not only in Japan but around the world. Therefore, it is the oldest dynasty in the world that has been loved by the Japanese people for more than 2600 years. This is a place to pray for people's happiness. It is a temple where you can feel the heart of Japan. Thank you for reading.

Great underrated huge temple with no tourists! There is a nice museum with artifacts worth seeing and the main temple is definitely worth seeing as well. It is as nice as Kiyomizu-dera, but without the view in my opinion. There is free parking at the top where you enter. It's ¥500 per adult and ¥300 for kids/ toddlers & babies are free. It is surrounded by forest and there are many small outbuildings to see as well. If you go through the left gate booth at the bottom of the hill by the main temple, there is more to explore. The gift shio is at the top of the hill opposite the main gate booth. I highly recommend a visit if you want to see a large temple with accompanying outbuildings without the...

Sennyu-ji Temple is located at the foot of Mt. Tsukinowa in the Higashiyama area of Kyoto. The origin of this temple, which is familiar to citizens by the name "Mitera," can be traced back to the Tencho Era (824-834) when Priest Kobo founded a small temple in its current place. That small temple, first called "Horinji" and later "Sen' yu-ji", was remarkably enlarged by Priest Tsukinowa Shunjo in 1218. Large temple buildings were built in the contemporary Chinese style of the Song Dynasty, and the temple was renamed after the clear water which began flowing from its precinct, Sennyu-ji Temple (temple of flowing fountain). Priest Shunjo entered the priesthood as a young man and traveled to China during the Song Dynasty to study Buddhism. The temple was supported by the Imperial family, who were pious Buddhists. Since the burial of the Emperor Shijo in this temple in 1242, the mausoleum of several succeeding emperors were built in this area, with this temple playing the role of the temple of mourning for the Imperial family. The scenic temple precinct includes the Butsu-den (Buddha's hall), the Shari-den (relic's hall), the Reimei-den for the repose of the late emperors, and other...
