    Osaka Osakashi Hirano-ku Hiranouemachi 1-7-26
    This is the head temple of the Nembutsu faith Yuzu Nembutsu sect that spread in the late Heian period, located a five-minute walk to the south of Hirano Station. The temple originated when the Ryonin Priest received an order from Prince Shotoku and built a Nemoto Dojo-seminary. The Sanmon (Temple gate) built in the early Edo period in front of the temple was designated as Osaka City's Tangible Cultural Property in 2006. The Hondo (Main Hall), reconstructed in 1938 which you can see as you pass through the gate, is made of zelkova wood with copper roofing. This is also the largest wooden building in Osaka Prefecture. In addition, this building was registered as a Tangible Cultural Property of the country in 2003.

    "Senkoji Temple is about a five-minute walk from the south exit of JR Hirano Station. It is considered one of the 13sacred Buddhist sites of Osaka and one of the 88 sacred sites of the former province of Settsu. Its beginnings date back about 1400 years, when Prince Shotoku Taishi built a small temple and installed a statue of YakushiNyorai (the bodhisattva of healing). The main buildings, dedicated to YakushiNyorai, are in the center of the temple grounds. This temple is also famous for its Jigokudo, a hall where visitors can supposedly experience hell. At the entrance, they check to see to what degree they merit paradise or hell, and see a fearsome statue of Enma- Daio, the kind of hell. The Machigurumi (""Entire Town"") Museum and the Dagashi-ya San (""Cheap Candy Store"") Museum are also on the temple grounds."

    A small shrine where you can have a good picture of both hell and heaven with an interesting and interactive area for people to play and understand the story. I like the place where it connected to...

    Osaka Osakashi Higashisumiyoshi-ku Yamasaka 1-18-30
    This temple is a four-minute walk from Minamitanabe Station. It is one of the 36 Fudo Temples in the Kinki Region and is affectionately called Tanabe-no-ofudo-san. Built in 1178, it is said to have originated when Taira no Shigemori placed Minamoto Yoshitomo's sacred personal Buddhist statue at the site. As you walk through the temple gate, the Dainichi Buddha of Kongokai (diamond world of buddha) is enshrined in the three-storied pagoda. On the right, a large 800-year-old camphor tree is standing, creating a calm scenery. In 1978, an original piece of the national treasure, Ao (Blue) Fudo of Shourenin Temple in Kyoto was found here and listed as an Important Cultural Property.

    地下鉄の田辺駅から徒歩5分程です。おおさか十三仏霊場第1番札所です。住宅街にある綺麗なお寺さんで、小さくもなく大きくもなくで参拝しやすかったです。

    Osaka Osaka-shi Sumiyoshi-ku Abiko 4-chome 1-20

    節分のときは厄除けの護摩木の奉納が行われるので、大阪南部の人はこぞってここを訪れる。火を焚いて太鼓の音とともに聞こえてくる祈祷の念仏にボルテージが上がる。狭い境内ながら周囲の道には出店がぎっしり。それらをみて歩くのも楽しみの一つ。そんなあびこ観音もそれ以外のときは閑静なお寺である。

    どう見ても鉄筋コンクリートの普通のお宅です。しかし、こちらに書いてある言葉は、「仏様はいつも一緒にいて下さる」という言葉は、守ってくれるという意味意外に悪いことはできないという意味でもあるのでしょう。いい教訓になりました。

    Osaka Osaka-shi Higashisumiyoshi-ku Kuwazu 3-chome 21-9

    桑津の八幡神社に隣接する寺院です。不動尊が本尊で、山門には仁王像もありました。みんな怖い顔系ですね。目の前にある八幡様には頻繁に参拝客があったのと比べると静かな場所でした。

    我孫子前駅から直ぐの場所に立つ浄土宗寺院でした。立派な山門は解放されており境内に入ると本堂が立っていました。本堂自体は新しい建築のように見受けられましたが、朱塗りの柱が遠目にも目立っていました。

    金属製の門扉は開けられており真っ直ぐ正面が本堂となっていました。門の横には「毘沙門天王」の石碑が立っていましたが傷みが酷い状態になっていました。全体に小ぶりな建築物で本堂の右手には「楠木正成奉納の石燈籠」が立ち、又境内には「さし石」が並んでいました。

While Osaka prefecture is the country's second smallest prefecture, its capital, Osaka City, is the country’s third-largest and arguably one of the most popular in the Kansai region thanks to its vibrant nightlife, the Osaka people’s openness, and its much-loved cuisine, which has earned it the nickname "the nation’s kitchen."
