🇯🇵 Yasaka Kōshin-dō Temple 八坂庚申堂
Tucked away in the Higashiyama district of Kyoto, Yasaka Kōshin-dō is a small but vibrant temple dedicated to Kōshin, a folk faith blending Buddhism, Taoism, and Shinto elements. It’s most famous for its colorful kukurizaru cloth balls representing desires you give up to gain self-control and inner peace.
Visitors write their wishes or temptations on the fabric balls and hang them around the temple, creating a bright, photogenic wall of colors. A hidden gem with spiritual meaning and a uniquely playful charm.
