[Kenninji Temple] The world of wind gods, thunder gods and Zen ⚡ A famous Higashiyama temple where tranquility and art coexist

#AbsolutelyFreeTrip Kenninji, the oldest Zen temple in Kyoto, is a spot where tranquility and beauty blend together, quietly nestled in the Gion area of Higashiyama. Although it is the head temple of the Kenninji school of the Rinzai sect, it is a space of "Zen and art" where you can enjoy artistic sliding door paintings and ceiling paintings✨ The most famous are Tawaraya Sotatsu's "Wind God and Thunder God Screen" (replica on display) and the "Two Dragons" painted on the ceiling of the lecture hall🐉🐉 You can't help but stare at their power and delicacy. The dry landscape garden and moss-covered corridors are also beautiful, and just walking through them makes you feel like your mind is in order🍃 If you visit as a couple, you can enjoy a special time of heart-to-heart communication in a quiet space. If you travel alone, you can take a "deep journey" that touches art and Zen. It is also popular with tourists from overseas, and is a spot where you can experience the depth of Japanese culture. 🌍 📍Access About a 7-minute walk from Keihan Gion-Shijo Station. About a 10-minute walk from Hankyu Kyoto Kawaramachi Station. It is close to Yasaka Shrine and Hanamikoji, so it is perfect for a walking route! Kenninji is a place where you can feel "moved" in the silence. Be sure to experience this world of Zen and art on your trip to Kyoto. ✨ Kenninji #FujinRaijin #KyotoTrip #ZenAndArt #Karesansui #OverseasTrip #CoupleTrip #SoloTrip
