Daigo-ji Temple Review

The temple is located in Fushimi District, Kyoto City, Japan. It is the main temple of the Japanese Buddhist True-Yan Zongyu sect. It was listed as a World Heritage Site in 1994. The temple is large and divided into three parts. The temple is decorated in gold and red in autumn. Outdoor elegance!

The temple is a bit remote and it takes time to visit the territory. The traffic is not particularly convenient, but the whole temple can enjoy the maple in autumn, and the cherry blossoms in spring are breathtaking at the national treasure level. If you have time, you may wish to arrange a half-day stroll.

The temple is located in Fushimi District, Kyoto City, Japan. It is the main temple of the Japanese Buddhist Zhenyan Zongyu sect. It is rumored to be the founder of the Japanese Zhenyan Zongzu Shikong, the Tusun Shengbao, founded in 874 AD. The temple was listed as a world cultural heritage in 1994 as a "relic of the ancient capital Kyoto", and many buildings such as the Jintang and the Five-Tower in the temple were designated as Japan's "national treasure".

Jun Temple is one of the 17 world cultural heritages in Kyoto. It is a little far from the urban area. Take the East-West subway line, get off at Jun Station, and then walk for 20 minutes to get there. On weekdays, the temple is quiet and tourists are scarce. Although the three treasure houses, the five pagodas and the Guanyin Hall of the temple are all national treasures, the Lingbao Museum is also a small museum with many national treasures, but it belongs to the state of keeping nobody in the boudoir. Perhaps, the tickets of the temple are more expensive than those of other temples. The joint tickets of the three collections are 1500 yen, and the tickets of Shangqu Mountain are 600 yen. The three courtyards of the temple refer to the main part of the temple, including the Five-fold Pagoda and Guanyin Hall, the courtyard culture of the three treasure courtyards and the Museum of the Lingbao Museum. Three parts can be bought separately, each is 600 yen, two is 1000, three is 1500.

The murals in one of the residences of Hideki Fukushi, a minister of Quan Temple, are very exquisite. Unfortunately, these cherry trees can not be photographed without shoes in the garden. For decades or even centuries, Shanghai is a small cherry tree or a different Japanese tree. They are full of flowers and are drunk in the sea of flowers.

醍醐寺是京都最早开花的景点，如果来京都赏樱，这里是必来的。景区分三个，可以买通票，也可以自由选择买。我们买的是通票，其实价格差的也不多。整个行程下来，我们都感觉醍醐寺的樱花是最美的。醍醐寺樱花的美不像上野，西之丸庭园那种 成片成排的樱花树形成的花海，它更多的体现在质上，讲究的布局，和日式园景相辅相成，花中有景景中有花。

最开始我还抱着侥幸心理准备就在醍醐寺门口看看就可以，最后发现如果你不买票进入寺庙里面，根本看不到樱花，最美的垂枝樱都在寺庙里面，所以我还是乖乖买票进去参观。到醍醐寺可以乘坐地铁东西线，醍醐站下车，然后步行20分钟左右到达。醍醐寺景区分三个管藏，可以买通票，也可以自由选择买。三个馆藏院落的联票是1500日元，上醍醐山再要买上山票600日元。醍醐寺的三个院落，是指醍醐寺主寺部分，包括五重塔和观音堂；三宝院部分的庭院文化，以及灵宝馆部分的博物馆。三个部分可以单独买票，分别都是600日元，买两个是1000，三个是1500。醍醐寺的垂枝樱真的是美极了，一定要买票进入才能近距离观赏到，千万不要吝啬门票。醍醐寺樱花不是那种成片成排的樱花树形成的花海，它更多的体现在质上，讲究的布局，和日式园景相辅相成，花中有景景中有花。垂枝樱的枝干通常都很粗大，由于花冠太大很多枝干会被人工支架固定，粉嫩的樱花曼妙的垂下，与醍醐寺众多国宝级的建筑物交相辉映，美轮美奂。醍醐寺因丰臣秀吉在此举办过盛大的“醍醐赏花”会而声名鹊起，因此常年排在京都赏樱胜地第一名，叫“醍醐花见”。醍醐寺不光樱花美，这里的建筑设计、庭院布置也别具匠心，慢慢逛可以在这里待上大半天。进室内参观，有些需要脱鞋。然后有一个馆藏里的千手观音，我印象特别深刻。第一次看到千手观音的手上拿了那么多东西，千手观音的长相也非常不一样，更像“将军”，因为不能拍照，我觉得还是很值得进室内参观日本的国宝收藏。沿着樱马场，穿过仁王门就来到塔堂林立的伽蓝区域。有陈列着药师如来坐像的金堂，有京都府最古老木造建筑五重塔，还有西国三十三观音灵场第十一巡礼寺～观音堂。还有其他众多的堂宇都很有特色！醍醐寺大概细细逛下来也要2个小时左右。但是非常值得一逛，我的京都第一站给到醍醐寺真是值得。最里面的伽蓝就是醍醐那个最有名的红叶景点儿，亭子外是一大池子池水，秋天周围全是红叶，但是我去的时候没有红叶，偶尔出现的樱花树也是挺美好的。
