Kiyomizu-dera Temple

Kiyomizu-dera, officially known as Otowa-san Kiyomizu-dera, is a historic Buddhist temple located in eastern Kyoto, Japan. Founded in 778, it is one of the most celebrated temples in Japan and a UNESCO World Heritage site. The temple is affiliated with the Kita-Hosso sect of Japanese Buddhism and is dedicated to Kannon, the Goddess of Mercy.

One of Kiyomizu-dera's most iconic features is its wooden stage that juts out from the main hall, offering breathtaking views of Kyoto, especially during the cherry blossom and autumn foliage seasons. This stage is supported by 139 wooden pillars and was constructed without using a single nail.

The temple’s name, “Kiyomizu,” means “pure water” and is derived from the Otowa Waterfall, located within the temple grounds. Visitors often drink from the waterfall’s three streams, which are believed to grant health, longevity, and success in academics.

Kiyomizu-dera is not only a place of spiritual significance but also a symbol of Japanese culture, attracting millions of visitors annually who come to experience its rich history, stunning architecture, and scenic surroundings.
