Saidaiji Kannon-in Temple, located in Higashi Ward, Okayama City, is a historic temple with a history spanning approximately 1,200 years. The annual "Saidaiji Eyo (Naked Festival)" held every February is known as one of Japan's three most unusual festivals, attracting worshippers from all over the country. 🔥👘
I visited outside of festival season, but the quiet grounds were filled with a solemn atmosphere, bringing a sense of calm to the soul. I was able to experience the impressive architecture of the main hall and Niomon Gate, as well as its deep history as a place of prayer. It's a wonderful place for couples to quietly pray together, and it's also perfect for solo travelers to clear their minds. 🙏
During the Naked Festival, men in white robes compete for a sacred stick, a spectacular sight that is simply overwhelming to watch. The passion and power of prayer will warm your heart.
Saidaiji Kannon-in Temple is the perfect place for those who want to experience traditional Japanese culture and reset their minds.
