‘KIYOMIZU temple what to see?-1’
I visited KIYOMIZU temple in Kyoto.
KIYOMIZU temple was founded AD778 , it’s one of the 17 UNESCO world heritage sites in Kyoto.
It’s located on the hill of east mountain of Kyoto.

You pray at the main hall and go through it and turn right . You see cute JIZO statues for miss carriages, abortions and passed away babies.

100 JIZO Buddha statues


You go down the slope turn right you come across the shallow 3 waterfalls, OTOWANO-TAKI.

OTOWA waterfalls


It’s the origin of KIYOMIZU temple, KIYOMIZU literally means clear water.
The 3 water means from the left , study , love , long life .
You should chose one of them, because it’s said that if we pray greedy, prayer doesn’t work .
I recommend you stay here long time and enjoy atmosphere of old Japan.
