Kita-in Temple in Kawagoe City, Saitama Prefecture 𓂃◌𓈒𓐍 𓂃◌𓈒𓐍𓂃◌𓈒𓐍𓂃 Founded as Muryoju-ji Temple by Jikaku Daishi Ennin in 830. In 1612, the temple flourished after Tenkai Sojo, who had earned the trust of Tokugawa Ieyasu, became the chief priest. It is now one of Saitama's most famous places for praying for protection from evil. You can see early-blooming Kawazu cherry blossoms in the temple grounds! They're not big, but the sight of the Kawazu cherry blossoms in full bloom, with their many bright pink flowers, is very soothing. 👉 Points of Kita-in Temple 🌸A temple that flourished under Tokugawa Ieyasu 🌸Famous for praying for protection from misfortune 🌸Early-blooming cherry blossoms can be seen ✼••┈┈┈┈••✼••┈┈┈┈••✼••┈┈┈┈••✼ ꕥTemple name: Kita-in Temple ꕥAddress: 1-20-1 Kosenba-cho, Kawagoe City, Saitama Prefecture ꕥAccess 🚉Honkawagoe Station → About 13 minutes walk ✼••┈┈┈┈••✼••┈┈┈┈••✼••┈┈┈┈••✼ #Sakura2024 #Famous cherry blossom spots #Cherry blossom spot #Cherry blossom season #Temple
