** Introduction : Jinko-in Temple is known as Kobo Temple of Nishigamo by the locals. The temple belongs to Shingon sect of Buddhism. This is one of 3 temples in Kyoto associated with Kobo Taishi ( Kukai ) as his sacred ground. Other two temples are Ninnaji in Omuro and Toji near Kyoto station. The place was once called temple of roof tiles since it was resided by an artisan producing roof tiles used for Imperial Palace. It was one summer time when Kukai was 42 years old, Kukai decided to stay in this temple for 90 days for his training. The temple originally established in 1217 by a clerical worker of Kamigamo Shrine when he saw revelatory dream of Kamo Myojin ( deity of Kamo known for the power to control thunder ). He was ordered by Kamo Myojin to build a temple hall at a place where the sacred light was shed from above. Thus this place was named Jinko-in 神光院. 神 deity 光 light 院 temple → A temple where the divine light of Kamo Myojin shines upon. ( Trans-word+ TGM Kyoto Guide )

It is one of the three major Koubou of Kyoto. Cherry blossoms in spring and colored leaves in autumn. What should be noted is the super rare tag called "Mysterious Dainichi Shikishi" You can get it for only 3,000 yen. You can always achieve your wishes just by decorating your room. I was afraid that something too powerful would lose something that much, I couldn't reach out, If it is true, it will be difficult! !

The Shinkoin, Toji Temple, and Renhe Temple are collectively known as the Sanhong Method of Kyoto. The gherkin seal is held on 7/21 every year to seal the suffering of the disease in the gherkin. Before the establishment of Kamigamo Shrine, he received the oracle to build a temple, that is, Shenguang Temple

The Nishigamo area is outside the Kyoto basin and has not been converted into a sightseeing spot, but Jinkoin is a quiet temple with no glory. There are many temples related to Kobo Daishi Kukai, but it has a long history of working in Sanboku, Kyoto, together with Kyogokokuji (Toji) and Shinmuro Ninnaji, which established Shingon Buddhism. On the 21st of every month, there is Tohoji's Kobo city, which is famous, but here you can't usually enter it, but on this day it seems to be in the main hall specially. I have an excuse.
