"Nishi Honganji" is the head temple of the Jodo Shinshu Honganji sect and a historic temple registered as a World Heritage Site.
Its magnificent buildings and dignified architectural beauty are overwhelming, and just visiting will calm your mind and fill you with a deep sense of security✨
The national treasures "Mieido" and "Amida Hall" are particularly impressive.
When you sit in the spacious tatami space, your back will naturally straighten and you will feel as if your mind is in order🍃
The temple grounds also have a beautiful garden and a historic shoin, making it an irresistible spot for architecture lovers.
There are few people in the morning, so you can relax and worship in silence.
If you visit as a couple, it's a time to calm your mind and have a deep conversation.
If you're traveling alone, it's a "journey of the heart" where you can quietly face yourself.
It's also popular with tourists from overseas, and is a place where you can experience Japan's religious culture and architectural beauty🌍
📍Access
About a 10-minute walk from JR "Kyoto Station".
Get off at the Nishi Honganji-mae bus stop on the city bus.
Close to the station and easy to access!
Nishi Honganji is not just a temple, it is a place to "calm your mind."
Be sure to immerse yourself in this majestic space on your trip to Kyoto 🙏✨
