Going further in after passing through the five-story pagoda...
there is a wonderful area with moss, and behind that is the Nichigetsumon Gate

It is a popular photo spot during the season of fresh greenery.

Going through, you will see a weeping cherry tree on your left.

There were many birds here, and everyone was desperate to take photos of the cherry blossoms and birds.

The Kannon Hall is the eleventh temple of the Thirty-Three Temples of the Western Provinces.

Prayers, sutra offerings, and red seals are accepted.

If you go further into the Daigoji Kannon Hall, you will find the Bentendo Hall standing on the Benten Pond. This is famous as a spot to see autumn leaves, and in the season when the leaves and ginkgo trees change color, the vermilion-painted Bentendo Hall blends well with the surface of the water, making it a famous spot for viewing autumn leaves. Inside the hall, Benzaiten, who is widely known as the goddess of the arts and sciences, including music, and knowledge, is enshrined. Cherry blossoms are also blooming around the Benten Pond, and I was able to take a shot of the Bentendo Hall and cherry blossoms reflected in the pond. #0 yen spring trip #cherry blossom spot #cherry blossom #Kyoto #Kyoto sightseeing #Kyoto trip #Daigoji Temple
