Kiyomizu-dera temple was built in 798. Here is one of most old temple in Kyoto. Kiyomizu means pure water.
Can you jump down from the stage of Kiyomizu-dera temple? The stage is 13m in height. 234 people had jumped down until 1864 to raise their courage. That's crazy! Now here seems to prohibit us from jumping down.
