DescriptionThe Main Hall of Kokuzo Horinji, standing on a height in Arashiyama, enshrines Kokuzo Bosatsu as its principal image. Revered as a deity who grants wisdom and merit, the temple is widely known for the Jusan-mairi pilgrimage made by children in their thirteenth year. Together with the open views overlooking Togetsukyo Bridge, the grounds convey a pure sense of prayer for growth and maturity.
