[Kyoto] Get some Afro power from the start of the year!

●Name Gokoshii Amida Buddha @ Konkai-Komyoji Temple ●Access 121 Kurodani-cho, Sakyo-ku, Kyoto City 🚗Use nearby parking ●Points "Gokoshii Amida Buddha" at Konkai-Komyoji Temple Also known as the "Afro Buddha"‼ ️ The reason for the afro is... It's the result of long, long training The name "Goko Shii Amida Buddha" is said to come from the fact that "for five kalpas, he simply concentrated on his thoughts, made 48 vows, and practiced to become Amida Buddha." As a result of his mind-bogglingly long training, his hair grew out and became like an afro, which is a blessing for this Buddha😊 This year, the line at the rabbit-related Okazaki Shrine right next door was crazy😅 I gave up on the two-hour wait to visit for the new year, so I went to get some afro power, but I was warmed by the calm, usual worshippers The weather was good and the view from the approach to the three-story pagoda was beautiful, and I love the view from here #tripmemory2022 #Kyoto #Temples and Shrines
