女人高野、室生寺を訪ねる
奈良の山間深くにある室生寺。
かつて、高野山が女人禁制だったのに対し、この室生寺は女性も参拝できたことから「女人高野」と呼ばれたそうです。

Let's visit the beautiful Buddha of the surrounded by lovely green trees mountain temple of Murouji
The Murouji temple that can be found on the outskirts of Nara in deep mountains is a beautiful mountain temple surrounded by green trees. The temple enshrines Sakyamuni and Juuichimen Kannon (the eleven faced Goddess of Mercy) who are protected by twelve divine generals. The sight of these wonderful statues gathered in one place can capture your heart and won't let you leave.
Visiting Murouji, also known as Nyoninkouya
Murouji is hidden in the deep mountains of Nara. A long time ago, women weren't allowed to enter high hills and fields, but they could visit this temple, and that's how it gained its nickname, "Nyouinkouya", which means "women in high fields".
