自転車で妙満寺へA 10-15 minute ride from Kitayama is Myomanji Temple.
A member of the Nichiren Buddhist sect, Myomanji enjoys fantastic views of Mount Hiei and is a short ride from Entsuji Temple.
There is a large concrete copy of the famous stupa at Bodh Gaya, India (and can be seen at left rear of the photo). The original is where the historical Buddha gained Enlightenment.
Inside the stupa is a statue of the Buddha.

The grounds are free, but there is an admission fee for the stupa and gardens.
