Fukui's Beautiful Heisen-ji Temple
Larry KnipfingMost striking are the tall majestic cedar trees, and the blanket of green moss covering the shrine's precincts. Come in the early morning or evening to catch best light.
Le sanctuaire Heisen-ji Hakusan a été construit il y a environ 1300 ans à l'entrée du chemin de pèlerinage Echizen autour du mont sacré Hakusan. Heisen-ji était considérée comme l'une des principales stations pour les pèlerins au sommet du mont Hakusan. Aujourd'hui, cependant, il ne reste qu'une petite partie de l'itinéraire original. Le sanctuaire original Heisen-ji Hakusan, a brûlé jusqu'à ses murs de fondation au 16ème siècle et a ensuite été reconstruit au début de la période Edo.
Le temple est entouré de forêts et de mousse d'un vert vif, dont la couleur peut vous couper le souffle dès que la lumière du soleil pénètre à travers les cimes des cèdres japonais. Le sanctuaire Heisen-ji Hakusan est accessible par les marches en pierre couvertes de mousse, bordées d'arbres centenaires, dont certains ont plus de 1000 ans.

特に素晴らしいのが、天空高く聳える荘厳な杉の木と、美しく苔生した境内である。早朝もしくは薄暮の訪問がお薦めだ。太陽の光で微妙に変化する、緑の苔の絨毯の風情を心ゆくまで堪能することができるだろう。
Наиболее поразительным являются высокие величественные кедры, и одеяло из зеленого мха, охватывающего некоторые участки храма. Приходите в рано утром или вечером, чтобы поймать удачное освещение.
