Buddhist Art Lecture Tour, Toji Temple and One Thousand Kannon

Overview

Hi, mature tourists including seniors who want to immerse in our history, art and hidden stories! Focus on my favorite 2 world heritage temples and sushi to get you more insightful about the details of them including breathtaking Buddhist statues without worrying about transport! Make your experience once in a lifetime memory. I'm an experienced language specialist and am currently studying Japanese Buddhist art at Buddhism Univ. for my next career. Toji Temple stands out with its iconic 5-story pagoda that you see when approaching Kyoto Station by Shinkansen. It houses amazing national treasures as the center of Esoteric Buddhism and one of the oldest temples in Kyoto, preserved over 1,200 years. In Sanjusangendo stand spectacular 1001 Kannon statues watching over us with merciful mystical smile, which makes me cry every time I see them. After visiting them, you will enjoy sushi lunch at a highly rated sushi restaurant. Don't miss this unique opportunity!
