As I already wrote we went to another temple yesterday. It is named Jotenji and was founded in 1242 by Shoichi Kokushi (a monk of course). Somewhere it was even said that Kokushi is a priest ^^
After he came back from China to Japan he established the Rinzai-Shû. Somehow it is a little bit the same as with the Tochoji and Kûkai who built up a temple when he came back from china :)
So first of all, here is the map:

First we went into the smaler part of the temple. You have to know that the temple is departed by a street.
So a bit unnormal for a temple.
Now the first part:

Now the first part:
After we got in I wondered what the small statues on the left side are good for. We looked at it and I got a little explanation. In the middle is a little old god. Even icecreme is given to him as a sacrafice ^^
And than a very funny thing happend :D Going back to the real way we saw a stone infront of that these statues( around 50 metres away) Because of the nice kanjiwriting on that little stone for me it was first a little stone ^^
Ryu-san read it and tried to explain it to me :) Because of my bad japanese it got harder than thought. After a few minutes he said that I should wait and look. Than he suddenly ran to the figure of the god an ran back to the stone again and clapped the stone ^^
If you want something good happen (for example know every kanji :D ) you just have to ran 100 times to the figure and back to the stone. After that you are really finished ^^ But hopefully it was worth.
....Yeah after we thought a whole second about it got to the next stop :)

This Time it was allowed to make a picture from the inside :) Or should I say there wasn't a lady who could tell us something different ^^ It looks a bit like a little altar infront of three small buddhas who are sitting on a higher level.
It is said that this temple is the founder of the Hakata Gion Yamakasa Festival. Maybe that's why there is this picture of an omatsuri.
Next to the left side of that building was another one. The groundlevel isn't a room. There is only a blog out of stone. A picture was built inside:
(sry because of the flash light..)
