Message from worldpitou

Kuramadera Temple is a mystical spot nestled on the side of Mt. Kurama in Kyoto. Legend has it that a Chinese monk had a dream about its spiritual powers, leading to the temple's creation in the eighth century. Visitors can take a cable car or hike up the mountain to reach the main shrine, where they'll be treated to stunning views of the surrounding valley and vibrant autumn foliage. With tengu spirits rumored to roam the area, Kuramadera Temple offers a unique blend of history, nature, and spirituality for those seeking a peaceful retreat in Kyoto.
