DescriptionAn old Tendai temple at the foot of Mt. Ogurayama in Sagano. The Main Hall enshrines two principal images known as the “Shaka who sends forth” and the “Amida who welcomes,” expressing Pure Land faith that guides people from this world toward the Pure Land. Surrounded by a quiet approach and the natural setting of the mountain foothills, the temple offers a peaceful space in which to contemplate the passage between life and death.
