HIGASHIOTANI

Higashiotani was constructed about the year 1690 after the christian era and its idole was Midabuds which was thought to be very sacred by the people.

For this reason the structure was completed much more grandly than any others.

I think it may be called one of the most distingushed places for it grants a delightful sight of Kiyoto.

It has a comely gate called Karamon, and before you enter the gate you will find a very nice road with shady trees on bothsides being close to Gion it is 12 Chios from Sanjio.
