Step into a haven of tranquility at Shitennō-ji, one of Japan's oldest Buddhist temples. As you wander the spacious grounds, you'll feel the deep history in the air, from the iconic five-story pagoda reaching for the sky to the peaceful ponds where turtles bask in the sun. It’s a truly calming escape from the city's hustle, offering a quiet space to appreciate the stunning, classic architecture. There is a small admission fee of ¥500 to enter the central temple complex.
