Tōji Temple, also known as Toji Temple, is a historic site in Kyoto with Japan's tallest wooden pagoda standing at 57 meters tall. Founded in the early Heian Period, this temple was once one of the capital's guardian temples and an important center for Shingon Buddhism. Visitors can explore the main hall, lecture hall, and treasure house, which display ancient Buddhist statues and artifacts. Don't miss the lively flea market held on the 21st of each month where you can shop for a variety of goods from clothes to antiques. Plus, the temple is just a short walk from Kyoto Station, making it easy to visit!
