📍Ikuchijima, Kosanji Temple & Miraishin no Oka | A different world where Japanese culture and art intersect

On the way to the Shimanami Kaido, we stopped by Ikuchijima. Here, we found a space filled with an entire worldview that didn't seem like just a temple. ⛩ The gorgeous and gorgeous Kosanji Temple Built by a Showa era businessman for his mother, the temple is reminiscent of Kyoto and Nikko. 🕳 In the underground Senbutsu-do Hell Gorge We entered a world of moss-covered stone Buddhas and the "Eight Great Hells." There was no light or sound, and to be honest, it was a little scary. 🪨 Then, returning to the surface, we entered the pure white marble world of Miraishin no Oka. Italian marble and contemporary art. On a hill overlooking the Shimanami Sea, the mysterious silence makes you feel like you're in a foreign country. Is there anywhere else where the atmosphere changes so much in a single temple...? ⸻ 🕒 Business hours and access • Business hours: 9:00-17:00 (entry until 16:30) • Admission fee: 1,400 yen for adults / 1,000 yen for university students / 800 yen for high school students / free for junior high school students and younger *Common fee includes Miraishin no Oka and Senbutsu-do • Location: 553-2 Setoda, Setoda-cho, Onomichi City, Hiroshima Prefecture (Ikuchijima) #Absolutely free trip
