  13. Right up until the Edo period small Buddhist statues were erected in Adashino (化野) to act as both grave markers and as silent guardians to watch over the dead.

    By the 20thC many of these statues were forgotten, half-buried, or lost in wild undergrowth.

  23. 🎋BRILLIANT BAMBOO🎍

    The bamboo groves of Sagano (嵯峨野竹林の道) may be world famous, but there are many -equally gorgeous but far quieter- places to see bamboo forests in and around Kyōto.

    Mukō (向日市), a short train ride from the city, has a whole park dedicated to bamboo!

  33. During Emperor Saga's time a terrible epidemic struck. Kūkai (空海) advised him to copy out the Heart Sutra, and sure enough the plague was ended. The original is displayed every 60 years (next in 2078).

    In 876 Saga's daughter, Princess Masako, turned the palace into Daikaku-ji.

  38. From the very beginning Jōjakkō-ji melted into the forested slopes of Mt. Ogura, the place where Fujiwara-no-Teika (藤原定家 1162-1241) had compiled the Hyakunin Isshu (百人一首) at his villa.

    Nisshin wanted his temple to be part of nature and so no large precincts were created.
