Japan Trip 2013 - Ryozen Kannon (靈山觀音)

From Kiyomizudera we moved on to a nearby temple, the Ryozen Kannon which houses a really huge Bodhisattva (菩薩) statue. Entrance fee was about ¥100-¥200.

From the looks of it, it's definitely not a major tourist spot, apart from Buddhists like me who come to this place to pay some respect or have a piece of mind. It's quite a decent place to do some meditation or other spiritual activities.

On our way down, we finally spotted some beautiful flowers! Summer in Japan was really starting to get dull. At least we got to see a glimpse of autumn colours.

Really nice Japanese Zen garden

Maple leaves?

From here we then make our way back to Kyoto station and headed to our last destination in Kyoto -> Fushimi Inari Shrine!
