Senkouji
This is a temple where you can get a glimpse of hell and paradise without leaving this world. Which path will you choose?
You often hear about paradise and hell, but this is a unique temple where you can see both of them while still alive. After completing your paradise and hell level check, if you proceed to the Hell Hall, you will be greeted by King Enma, who will explain with eerie pictures what kind of punishment you will receive depending on the crime you committed. In the paradise world of Buddha's Land, sand from each temple of the 88 sacred sites of the Saigoku Kannon Pilgrimage is placed in the handrails of the stairs, and you can meditate while sitting in front of a stained-glass mandala depicting the world of Buddha. Perhaps a visit here will completely change the way you live your life.
