Toji Temple, located in the south of Kyoto City, is a temple associated with Kobo Daishi and is also a World Cultural Heritage site. North of the National Treasure five-story pagoda is a pond with a circular layout, where lotus flowers are reflected on the water’s surface in early summer, creating a vibrant spectacle.
The 21st of each month is the anniversary of Kobo Daishi’s death, and the temple is bustling with many worshippers on this day.
