How have you been lately? Toyama is lifting restrictions on travel in the prefecture. So I visited Nissekiji temple, today.(about 30 min from Toyama station by car)This temple is famous for "Magaibutsu"(Buddha carved on a cliff) and "Takigyo"(Ascetic practices under a waterfall).

This is three-storied pagoda. Did you notice anything? Oh yes!? This pagoda has no wall! So you can see "Shin-bashira" or core pillar in the center. You can learn about the structure of a pagoda.

Somen noodles made of wheat flour(right) is the specialty of this area. After strolling around the temple, this coll noodle made me refresh! (28℃!! and very humid today)
