Thank you for watching.
I will walk many places from now on.
Look forward to it!
The area around Hōzan-ji was originally a place for the training of Buddhist monks. The name of the place at that time was Daishō-Mudō-ji (大聖無動寺).
Mount Ikoma was originally an object of worship for the ancient people in the region, and so this area was selected as a place for religious training. The training area is said to have opened in 655 by En no Gyōja. Many Buddhist monks, including Kūkai (空海), are said to have trained in here.
Hozan-ji started when Tankai (湛海) re-opened this training area in the 17th century. Tankai set up a statue of Kangiten (Shoten) at this place in 1678, the official year Hozan-ji was established.
In the Edo period, this temple was one of the most popular Buddhist temples in this region.

What a great walking tour!!! By any chance you know what time do the lanterns lit up? And does it lit up any evening in a week? Thanks.

Sorry for the late response. I am not sure about the time but I think when it starts to become dark the lights started to light up, As I know there is an event Every year on the Autumnal Equinox holiday that will light up all the lanterns I think it wil be 23rd of September.
