This Tendai Buddhist temple is dedicated to Fudo Myoo and the home of many festivals throughout the year. I thought it was interesting because there were so many nooks and crannies with statues and incense burners. I don't understand their meaning, but I can still appreciate the history and beauty.
It seems like there are always many stairs to climb at temples.
This was the only English sign I saw, but I was glad to read this information.

That looks like a lovely temple set in beautiful peaceful gardens.
Most temples, and shrines, in Japan seem to be made up of several smaller buildings or statues.
Wow, lots of interesting architecture, statues and a fountain.
Looks like a good walk.
What spectacular sites you've visited--lovely pictures...they all look so serene and quiet...hugs, Julierose
