Kiyomizu-dera
The temple is located on Mount Otowa in Kyoto. It is considered a jewel among the shrines of the area. It was built in 798. According to legend, the monk Entin noticed a stream and, wanting to find its source, climbed the mountains. At the top he found a clearing with an amazing waterfall. After a visionary dream, the monk founded a temple. Over time, a temple complex was built there. The water here is considered sacred, and the view from the temple to Kyoto is spectacular.
