Message from Empty Japan

Hands down, one of the most astonishing and my absolute favorite temples in all of Japan. It's situated relatively far from the center of Osaka, yet the temple itself is quite vast, allowing you to easily spend 1-2 hours here. Dedicated to Daruma, the temple houses thousands of these dolls tucked away in every corner. Make sure to acquire one for yourself or as a gift for someone else.
