TokyoStreetView - Japan The Beautiful | Hieizan Enryakuji Temple - Shiga - 延暦寺 - 4K Ultra HD @TokyoStreetView | Uploaded May 2019 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
Often wrongly credited as one of the many beautiful temples of Kyoto, Enryakuji, is actually located on top of Mount Hieizan in Shiga prefecture. It is properly credited however as one of the most important monasteries in Japanese history as well as being the headquarters of the Tendai sect of Japanese Buddhism. Many influential monks studied at Enryakuji, including the founders the Pure Land (Jodo), Zen and Nichiren sects.
Enryakuji Temple was initially founded in 788 by Saicho, the monk who introduced Tendai Buddhism from China and features as many as 3,000 other temples. Enryakuji Temple is also famous for its past army of warrior monks (僧兵 sōhei) who often engaged in power struggles with other monasteries and political leaders in Kyoto, as a counterbalance to power hungry individuals.
Note : Enryakuji Tem main hall is undergoing some renovation and will be covered by scaffolding until at least 2026.

Note : This is a remastered version of a previously uploaded video with enhanced color accuracy and overall improved image quality.
Completed in 1611 Matsue Castle, a “Black Castle” due to its dark and austere exterior is and surrounded by a gorgeous moat and thick wall. It is one of only a dozen original castles left in Japan. That means that unlike many others like Naoya Castle and Osaka Castle, Matsue Castle and it’s main tower have survived to this day through many wars and natural disasters. In 1638 the castle and its fief were assigned to a branch of the Matsudaira clan who were relatives of the powerful ruling clan at the time, the Tokugawa.

Founded in 1349 as the first Jishu School temple in Sado, Shokoji is a small little temple tucked away in the back of the little Shukunegi village south of Sado Island. Shokoji has been enshrining the Tokai Benzaiten or the sea-crossing goddess, since its inception and has continuously been worshiped as a guardian deity protecting against shipwrecks, and as a goddess of artistry. Another of Shokoji temple’s most treasured artifacts is its gorgeous Tokai Benzaiten painting donated by the master artist Mahori Hogan Yoshitaka.

![[Cinematic] Okunoin Cemetery Part II - Wakayama - 奥の院 - 4K Ultra HD](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/fpWQ0Pdt50s/hqdefault.jpg "[Cinematic] Okunoin Cemetery Part II - Wakayama - 奥の院 - 4K Ultra HD
Part II : Mystical.
Time : 4h30 p.m.
On this second part of our video series on Okunoin Cemetery (Koyasan - Wakayama), we wanted to spend some time on some of the old, yet most beautiful tombs and mausoleums of Okunoin Cemetery. It is very difficult for us to describe the unique ambiance and beauty of some of Okunoin’s less visited areas. Often abandoned and neglected these moss covered tombs offer us a weirdly satisfying and reassuring sense of peace. Unlike cemeteries in other countries nothing here feels creepy and visiting the area feels like stepping in the shoes of an historian discovering a long lost civilisation in the middle of a dense forest in a faraway country.
If you ever have the chance to visit Okunoin, make sure to stop and close your eyes for a moment, take a deep breath and let the power of this place replenish your soul with a series meditation exercises, you will not regret it!
