Kiyomizu Temple
Kiyomizu Temple was founded in 587AD.
The main deity is the 11-headed Kannon, who many people believe has the power to drive out evil spirits. As such, people who are said to be in their unlucky year come and pray here.
The main symbol of the temple is the three-storey pagoda, the only one in the San-in region of Japan.
The name Kiyomizu means pure water, and a mountain stream flows along the moss-covered stone steps on the long approach.

Along the way is Iwa-fudo-san, the immovable stone deity.
He watches over people coming to worship and drives away evil.
Near the top a statue of Kannon awaits the worshippers, welcoming them to the temple with her serene presence.

This temple has a long and important history of Buddism in Shimane. It is said to be originally built in 825 by 智元上人 Chigen Shonin (holy priest) and was the temple of Tendai sect of Buddism at the time.
Later in the late Kamakura period, it was reconstructed as a Zen temple and prospered so much it became one of the most famous temples in the region.
After then, the temple had decayed as a result of a fire caused by the war.
The temple saw the light of the day again when 堀尾吉晴 Horio Yoshiharu, the feudal lord of Matsue at the time, decided to build Matsue Castle in 1607.
Since Mt. Makuragi is located in the spot superstitiously believed to be unlucky, the temple was restorated and became a temple for praying.
The sitting statue of Yakushi Nyorai kept in Yakushido Hall is the work of the late Heian Period and designated a National Important Cultural Property.
The gate of the precinct built in the middle of Edo Period is Cultural property designated by Shimane Prefecture.

This is one of the Kokubunji Temples constructed nationwide under the orders of Emperor Shomu 聖武天皇.
Wood tabs related to census registration were discovered around this site, suggesting that there were related facilities for Chikuzen-koku Province, such as a provincial office nearby.
The surrounding landscape still retains some remnants of that era.
In the year 741, Emperor Shomu announced that he would build Kokubun-ji Temples for monks and
Kokubun-niji Temples for nuns all over Japan and place Buddhist scriptures in Shichiju-no-to (Seven-Story pagoda).
Thus Chikuzen Kokubun-ji Temple was the earliest built temple in Kyushu, completed inthe year 756.
Investigations of ruins of halls and towers have been done and partially maintained.

Hayaakitsuhiko and Hayaakitsuhime Hayaakitsuhiko and Hayaakitsuhime are kami (god) in Japanese Methodology (shinto).
The kanji used for Hayaakitsuhiko and Hayaakitsuhime are 速秋津比古神 and 速秋津比売神, respectively, in Kojiki (The Records of Ancient Matters);
速秋津日命 (Hayaakitsuhinomikoto) in Nihonshoki (Chronicles of Japan).
In the Kojiki, it is stated that Hayaakitsuhiko and Hayaakitsuhime are also known as Minato no kami.
Hayaakitsuhiko and Hayaakitsuhime are a god and goddess pair who were born between Izanagi and Izanami in the section of kamiumi (bearing gods between Izanagi and Izanami) in the Japanese Methodology. Minato no kami is a collective term for them.
According to the volume 6 of an "alternate writing" transmitted by Nihonshoki, 'gods at the water gates are called Hayaakitsuhinomikoto.' ... Minato no kami means god of sea port.
Since port was constructed at the mouth of a river in ancient times, Minato no kami is also god for a river mouth.
From the image of running impurities in a river, Minato no kami is also regarded as a god for warding off evil fortune.
'Haya' in the names of Hayaakitsuhiko and Hayaakitsuhime implies the speed of the water in the river or the current in the ocean.
Also, the names of the god and goddess are considered to have originated from the fact that the use of the river mouth depends on the speed of the current.
On the other hand, 'akitsu' in the names of the god and goddess is thought to mean that misogi (purification ceremony) purifies things quickly and clearly. ...
