[Kyoto] Sanjusangendo Temple

📍Sanjusangen-dō, Kyoto The thousand Buddha statues are simply overwhelming. Sanjusangen-dō, quietly standing near Kyoto Station, is a place where you can have an especially "overwhelming experience" among the many temples. The thousand Thousand-Armed Kannon statues lined up inside the hall, as well as the wind and thunder gods, are truly otherworldly in their presence. 🧘♀️The majestic space is quiet yet powerful, and moves the hearts of those who see it. The building itself is a designated national treasure, and the beauty of the details and the number of pillars (33 bays = 34 pillars) are also noteworthy! 📷Photography is prohibited inside, but the exterior, garden, and long corridor are also photogenic. This is a must-see spot for travelers who want to feel history. 📍Access: About 5 minutes on foot from Keihan Shichijo Station #Japan #Kyoto #Sanjusangendo #Thousand-Armed Kannon #National Treasure #Kyoto Tourism #japan #kyoto #sanjusangendo #kyototrip #vacation #trip #travel #temple #shrine
