Whispers of Stone — Otagi Nenbutsu Temple, Kyoto 🪷

Hidden in the quiet hills of Arashiyama, Otagi Nenbutsu Temple feels like stepping into a secret world. 🏯 Over 1,200 quirky stone statues smile, laugh, and meditate among moss and trees — each carved by a different person, each with its own story. 🌿 Peaceful, playful, and a little mysterious, it’s one of Kyoto’s most enchanting hidden gems. A must-visit for anyone seeking serenity and soul. 💫 #kyoto #otaginenbutsuji #japanhiddengems #solotravel
