Oushuu33Kannon Temples 11-12-13 Part 5


We got closer and the red roofs were definitely the temple. We would see the graveyard on the hill behind, some statues off on the right, and double pillars that looked like they might mark the temple entrance.We continued toward the temple and on one of the zigzags we found this beautiful old cherry tree that was not yet in bloom, but still very nice to look at.
We had been right about the pillars. They marked the outside end of the entrance road to the temple.
At the inside end of the road we found the temple gate.
Passing through the gate, we could see a fountain for washing our hands of the left and a large meditation building in front of us.
