Tanukidani Fudoin
Situated far up at the mountain near Ichijyoji, this less known temple is actually a favourite place for Kyoto people to have their new car bless.
This temple is set at the mountainside with a fine view of the Kyoto city.
If you are tired with the ever crowded Kiyomizu dera or Kinkakuji.. this is the perfect place to recharge your "energy" .
By the way, there are hundreds of Tanuki replica here!
