Welcome to Kyotopia, the podcast that takes you on a journey through the cultural heart of Kyoto. In this episode, we explore the fascinating history and cultural significance of Toji Temple with the guidance of our special guest, Rieko, a Kyoto native and tour guide.

Rieko has provided us with a compelling essay about Toji Temple, which we have translated into English. Together, we delve into the rich history of the temple, which was built over a thousand years ago during the Heian period. We explore the various halls and buildings, including the stunning five-story pagoda, which is the tallest wooden structure in Japan.

This episode is perfect for anyone interested in the cultural heritage of Japan and the fascinating history of Kyoto's temples. So, put on your headphones and let us take you on a virtual journey through the iconic Toji Temple.
