I have actually been here!!! It’s truly amazing… but what they don’t tell you about is the ceiling.
The ceiling is made of the floorboards from another temple where a extremely bloody battle had taken place. The bodies of the dead were left on the floor for days. As you can see, their foot prints, hand prints, and generally anywhere their bodies laid in a pool of blood. It was very surreal, and extremely quiet. This temple was a little hard to find. When I was there, there were maybe 3 other visitors besides me.
Definitely worth checking out and experiencing if you get a chance to visit.
Also, I’m pretty sure I got a couple of side eyes. According to a friend in Japan, he said that no one really wants to take pictures of the ceiling in fear of bringing home the spirits of the dead with them.
