Shitenno-ji Temple
Shitennoji is a temple that transcends sects and hosts a temple fair on the 21st and 22nd of every month, featuring not only religious ceremonies but also numerous stalls. Furthermore, facilities for education, healthcare, and welfare, based on the "Four Institute System" established by Prince Shotoku, continue to be preserved to this day.
This temple is not just a historical site; it is a place where Japanese culture, religion, and history intersect, and its multifaceted nature and depth continually attract visitors.
