The Buddhist holy place in Japan is the main field of the Japanese master of the Suga. We went to play in the autumn red leaf season. The red leaves on both sides of Omotesando are very beautiful. It is the famous place for the island countries to enjoy the red leaves. The Jingangfeng Temple is built by the master of the Suga. You can visit it in slippers and it is also a world cultural heritage.

I think it is a very good monastery. If you listen to the explanation of the interpreter, you can learn how Buddhist monks live here. There is a tea room with free tea. No photos can be taken inside.

游侠半仙
The town of the new palace shrine guards the mountainside of Quanxian Mountain. It is said that the place where the gods of Kumano Sanshan came to the Yuangong of Kumano Suyu Dashe. The huge rock Qin led rock (that is, the body of the shrine), located on the cliff wall known as the Tianyi Shield, to climb the shrine, first climb the steep 500-level stone steps in the Kumano ancient road can only reach, but people are convinced that only all the suffering on the road can be overcome, Only the blessing of the gods of Kumano can be sought. Because of the tight time and the difficult road, he did not board the shrine of Kamakura, and only punched in the foothills.

The Kumano Ancient Road was built for nobles to visit the Kumano Shrine in ancient times, and later became the road for practitioners to Ise Shrine. The whole ancient road is divided into 15 sections, which can be used for physical strength and time, but no matter which section you go, the scenery is equally charming. You can also visit the local hot springs and the stacked, orderly rice fields. Check in the Kumano Honya section of Kumano Ancient Road

#2 of Best Things to Do in Nara

Miasmile
Remember 2019.11 Kansai late autumn trip~ Maple Leaf season came to Nara, Dongda Temple is a must-have place to enjoy the maple. Before I came, I didn't know that the scale of the East Temple was so large, with the Big Buddha Hall as the center, surrounded by the East and West Seven Towers, there are South Gate, there are lecture halls, there are Jietan Courtyards, there are Zhengcang Courtyards, there are February Halls, Fahua Halls, Kaishan Halls, etc. It is really magnificent. It is said that the Big Buddha Hall is the world's largest wooden building. It was just that it was late afternoon from Nara Park to Todaiji Temple, and there was not enough time to browse one by one, only entering the February hall of the temple. But just such a hasty and quick tour is enough to be shocked by the landscape of Red Maple. If you have the opportunity, you must come again!

走遍天下XZ
Spring Day Club, located on the Spring Day Mountain in Nara Park, although it is a mountain, it is actually a little slope. It has a history of more than 1,300 years and has been listed by the United Nations on the World List of Cultural and Historical Heritage Protection. It is the temple of the Fujiwara family, which is a prominent Japanese history, and is dedicated to the patron saint of their family. The Fujiwara family has manipulated the Japanese royal family for more than 300 years, and is also an active promoter and practitioner of the Chinese political and social system and has been fully transplanted into Japan. The never-cut spring mountain, the purple alfalfa that symbolizes family names and ethnic surnames, the mysterious apple tree, the moss-covered stone lanterns, the sticky fawn are all worth seeing.

The two cities tour routes and the Chinese guide book are doing very well. It is the most organized scenic spot in Japan for a week of free travel. ~ worth a visit! The Chinese guide book at the door must remember to take it!

Castles

Sander van Vliet
If you are planning to visit a castle, this one is much of a better choice than Hiroshima or Osaka castle. For a simple reason; this one is real, the others are fake. From Himeji station it's a 15-20 minute walk, passing by different shops with souvenirs and other stuff. The park of the castle itself is not impressive but the castle, completely manufactured out of wood, is something special and very well preserved. I'm sure tons of rework and maintenance is being carried out to keep it in it's original shape but it remains cool to walk through. There is a designated walking route through the castle which brings you all the way to the top floor with some great views over Himeji. After your visit, it's totally worth visiting the neighboring garden Koko-en. I would say, for both the castle and graden, a 2,5 to 3 hours is enough traveling time excluded.

The Phoenix Hall is a resembling the official hall of the Jingshi, consisting of the left wing corridor and tail corridor of the middle hall. It is a building not found elsewhere. The hall brings together the most outstanding treasures of the Ping An era's pure land teaching art, including the only existing Amitabha milk carved by the Buddha-made master Ding Dynasty, as well as 52 statues of the Bodhisattva in the clouds, and 9 murals painted by Amitabha to welcome the picture. To visit the Phoenix Hall of the Equality Academy, you need to queue up to buy a tour coupon first. There is an entry time for the tour coupon. You need to go on time. There is an artificial Japanese explanation for the entrance tour and you cannot take pictures. The Japanese ten yuan coin pattern is the Equality Academy.
