Saimyoji

Situated in the remote heights of Takao, Saimyoji stands as the quietest sanctuary among the Three Tails temples. The murmur of Kiyotaki Stream provides the soundtrack to inner practice and self-confrontation. Autumn crimson reaches spectacular apotheosis here, drawing pilgrims across generations. True spiritual practice transcends words—it emerges through communion with nature in places like this. Even the name Makioji speaks to this temple's profound spiritual significance.
