Located in Tennoji Area, Shitenno-ji Temple not only provides praying place for Buddhism, but more than that, it’s one of prominent historic building in Japan. It’s officially stated as the oldest Buddhist temple in entire country. Aside of few reconstructions issue, the temple still worth visiting especially the beautiful garden and themed exhibitions. Shitenno-ji Temple is also notable for its quaint five stories pagoda. In addition, it’s said that on the 21st and 22nd day of each month, the temple commission holds a flea market which provides mostly the temple’s souvenirs.

    Sitianwang Temple is located in Tennoji Park. The location is relatively quiet. The buildings inside are also very chic and elegant. The environment is clean and comfortable. No one has a noisy feeling. It is located in it and people have become harmonious.

    According to the Japanese Book Chronicle, before the war, the St. Dev Prince who practiced Buddhism and the anti-Buddhist Ministry of Things, the St. Dev Prince who was in a bad situation made a wish to the four-day king of the Fa god, and after defeating the Ministry of Things, a monastery will be established for the four-day king. In 593 AD, the victorious Prince Satoshi established the Shitennoji in Osaka, a representative temple building in the era of Japanese birds. The middle gate, tower, golden hall and lecture hall of the four-tennoji temple are arranged in a straight line from north to south, this galan layout is modeled on the architectural style of China at the time, and the Nara World Heritage Falong Temple is listed as a representative of the Bird-era monastery buildings built from the end of the 6th century to the first half of the 7th century. At the beginning, the monastery was also committed to good and good, and it was divided into Xerox Hospitals for the elderly and young children, giving medicine to poor patients, and pioneering the cause of social welfare in Japan.

    The Shitennoji Temple in Osaka is one of the oldest Buddhist temples in Japan. The main buildings include the Five-Tower, the Golden Hall, the Lecture Hall, the Six-Time Hall, the Prince Hall and the Honfang. The temple architecture here is one of its characteristics in addition to the architectural style of the Sui and Tang periods in China. The temple is regarded by Buddhists as the Buddhist altar of Osaka. It has Buddha statues such as Nannodi Tibetan Bodhisattva and a release pool. It can be said that friends who practice Buddhism should not miss it if they visit Osaka.

    My friend was tired and decided to take a day off. So I ate breakfast alone and went to the Four-Day King Temple. The Four Heavens King Temple is not far from Marriott where we live, so we can walk past it. It's raining heavily today. It's not convenient to take pictures along the way, but the rainscapes in the Four Days King Temple are unexpectedly beautiful. Today, there is a market in the Temple of Four Heavens. There are still many people. There are many special things to see and buy.
