[Shiga] Introducing Ishiyama-dera Temple, the birthplace of the Tale of Genji!

Ishiyama-dera Temple in Shiga Prefecture is the 13th temple of the Thirty-Three Kannon Temples of the Western Region. The temple grounds are lined with a natural monument of wollastonite, from which the temple's name is derived.
It is also known as the place where "The Tale of Genji" written by Murasaki Shikibu began, and the temple has many attractions, including "Autumn Moon at Ishiyama," one of the Eight Views of Omi.

In autumn, the trees change color, making the temple even more beautiful.
