Scenery Of Each Season And Cute Daruma At A Temple Of Luck With Victory

It is believed as a temple of luck with victory. In the precinct, there are many daruma dolls which have a spirit of 'nana korobi ya oki' (though fall seven times, get up eight times).

Mountain Temple With Beautiful Fall Foliage Like A Paradise In Autumn

Katsuo-ji Temple is the 23th one of Saikoku 33 Temples. It's famous for Daruma Dolls, and also the beautiful fall foliage that cover the whole mountain in autumn. You can see the lovely collaboration of Daruma and autumn colored leaves.

Daruma Dolls Here And There. A Shrine With Many Pretty Daruma

A shrine has victory luck. Walking around the precincts, I can find many daruma dolls on the stones and trees. They're so pretty. These small daruma had omikuji (a lot) in them, and visitors left them all over the shrine.
