I would like to show you around temples closely associated with the introduction of Buddhism.
I recommend Horyu-ji Temple located in the northern part of Nara Prefecture. It is the oldest wooden structure in the world. The temple was designated as the first World Cultural Heritage site in Japan. It was from here that Buddhism blossomed and spread throughout the land.
And the five-story pagoda of Horyu-ji Temple is known for being the oldest earthquake-proof structure. Today, this structure's technique is employed by TOKYO SKY TREE, imagine that!
A giant papier-mache tiger will be waiting for you in front of the red gate at Chogosonshi-ji Temple. This temple is the head temple of Bishamonten who gave Prince Shotoku the idea of a punitive expedition to the Moribe-clan, an unbeliever of Buddhism. It is said that Prince Shotoku built this temple that enshrines Bishamonten in 594.
I hope you enjoy visiting these historical Buddhist temples.

We had an excellent day with HIDEo YOSHIda. From our wishes he planned a tour, took us around town and showed us different sights of Kyoto. He is very knowledgable in many different areas so we learned a lot about Japanese culture and history. We can warmly recommend a day with HIDEo YOSHIda.
Hello Brian. I'm very glad to receive your good review. Today we visited Japanese gardens such as moss garden in Saihoji, Sogenchi garden in Tenryuji and Ninomaru garden in Nijo Castle. They gave us peaceful and fresh atmosphere. I'm going to do my best on guide for many years to come. Thank you. Best HIDEo YOSHIda
He is so friendly and very knowledgeable about local history and japanese mythology. His itinerary was well preplanned. I would not have been able to explore all the places we did on my own. Thanks Hideo san!
