Since the 13th century, Kamakura has gradually formed its own unique samurai culture and widely accepted Zen culture by samurai. There are quite a lot of temples and shrines in Kamakura, which all give Kamakura a deep heritage that is no less than Kyoto and Nara. On three sides of the mountain, one side to the sea of natural terrain, Kamakura has a civilization and nature, and will be a few aspects of the countryside, so there is a saying that it is called Kyoto in East Japan. Built in 1282, the temple known as "Linjizong Daben Mountain" is the second "Kamakura Wushan", with a high reputation in Japan. The first abbot of Yuanjue Temple is a Ningbo native named Wuxuezu Yuan.

    Many people who go to Kamakura like to go to Enoshima Electric Railway Station to check in. But don't forget to forget the Yuanjue Temple, which is only 100 meters away from the mouth of Beikamakura, a place to relax. It is also a resting place where many literati Xiamu Shushi, Kawadu Kangcheng and Lu Xun step on. Entering the eye is a Chinese Tang Dynasty style wooden building, it is the first door into the Yuanjue Temple, called the three doors. The middle door is written short; the left is no phase, there is no, the appearance of the face; the right is no wish, there is no, the wish of the wish. Xia Mu Shushi returned to the UK, fell into depression because of lovelorn, sleepless all day, some people advised him to go to Yuanjue Temple to sit in Zen, sure enough, less than a month, he cured the pain of the heart, and wrote his three steps The most famous "Door", and that "Door" wrote these three doors. Since then, Shimazaki Fujimura also heard the news to sit in Zen, and the later writers and politicians were endless.

    The tea house in the fragrant. The tea room next to Yuanjue Temple is converted into a tea ceremony master. The tea house is a traditional Japanese-style house. There are not many seats. You can choose to sit by the window and enjoy the small garden outside the window. The desserts are traditional Japanese refreshments. The price ranges from 700 yen to 1,000 yen. Recommended red bean skewers, red bean dumplings, matcha and coffee.

    3 minutes walk from JR North Kamakura. Kamakura is ranked second among the 5 temples. Probably because this big temple is more famous. However, there is really no special feature... The block shows the painting of a monk at the temple, which looks very cute.

    Yuanjue Temple is one of the five famous temples in Kamakura. As long as you arrive in Kamakura, you must check in. According to the introduction on the ticket, the temple was built in 1282, which is a typical Chinese Buddhist temple type and the oldest existing Chinese building in Japan. The reason why Yuanjue became a famous temple was because Kublai tried to cross the sea in 1271 to invade Japan, causing panic in Japan. At that time, when the Kamakura Shogunate in Japan was down, the temple Kaishan ancestors, the Song Dynasty high monks without learning ancestor Yuan for the fallen soldiers prayed super, resulting in Kublai's Mongolian army twice in the sea was blocked by storms, resolving the crisis of the Japanese kingdom, making Yuanjue Temple famous throughout the country. Wu Xuezu Yuan later returned to China, his first son as a gratitude teacher, so expanded the monastery, broadcast the Buddha, became a famous temple in Japan. Yuanjue Temple is built along the mountain, the courtyard is in a long row, there is a water pool under the mountain, divided into two pools, called the white pool, the poolside has a Chinese pure land Zongchan Temple-style garden. The name of the Bailuchi Lake is said to be the obvious spirit of the god of the Yasaka Palace in Hegang. The white crane was sent to guide the master of the unscientific ancestor Yuan to build the temple. The white dragon did not see it, and then saw a few turtles leisurely sunbathe. The garden is configured with solemn and peaceful, up the mountain from the stone steps, with towering ancient fir forests on both sides. Crossing the stone street and walking along the trail, you can reach the mountain gate. The style is magnificent. There are exquisite woodcuts on the cross beam. The surrounding scenery is elegant. There is a path to Hongzhong on the right side of the mountain gate. This is the most famous and largest temple bronze bell in Kamakura. It has a long history and was built in 1301. After passing the mountain gate, you can go to the temple to worship the original Buddha of Yuanjue Temple. Because of the crown, it is called the Baoguan Sakya Rulai. The "Daguangming Palace" was given by Emperor Houguangyan in 1378. Looking up at the roof, the white dragon picture painted by the algae well was painted by the Maeda Qingxuan painter and his disciple Shouwu Duoduozhi painter. From the temple of the Buddha, you can see the Yuanjue Xingsheng Temple on the right. This is the main mountain of the Yuanjue Temple in Linjizong, Japan. You can continue to walk up to the Miaoxiang Pool. In fact, it is the release pool. Because the rock exposed on the other side seems to be tiger head, so it is called "tiger head rock", the poolside is full of flowers, the scenery is quite Zen. Going to the left of Miaoxiangchi, you can reach the Sheli Temple, the oldest Chinese Tang Dynasty-style building in Japan, which is listed as a national treasure by the government and is a courtyard house where the ancestors were not educated when the mountains opened. The Sheli Temple in Yuanjue Temple is dedicated to the teeth of the Sakya Buddha known as the "Buddha Teeth Sheli". Other attractions such as Jushilin, the abbot room, etc., are suitable for walking slowly and taste quietly. Japanese monasteries are not like domestic ones, and fireworks are everywhere. You can only see the money box, throw 5 yen in, shake the bell, wake up the Buddha, and make a wish. I feel that Japanese monasteries are more inclined to "Zen". Summer Musushi, Shimazaki Fujimura used to participate in Zen here.
