Daiunin Temple

Daiunin Temple in Kyoto is a historic Jōdo-school site founded in 1587 to console the spirits of Oda Nobunaga and his son Nobutada. Today the grounds are home to the Gion Kaku, a three-story reinforced-concrete building erected in 1927 and known as the "Bronze Pavilion," which houses a seated statue of Amida. During the rare public events, you can view the architecture and visit the graves of Nobunaga, Nobutada, and the legendary outlaw Ishikawa Goemon. The temple garden also offers a peaceful atmosphere in the middle of the city.
