The 1001 statues of Kannon are impressive. One of the highlights of my trip! Check the back for some historical trivia. Get the pamphlet and read it because it's explanatory and succinct.

Very impressive temple with 1,000 statues. They have nice volunteer guides in english, but you can also go in by yourself and get almost the same informations from the signs in the temple.

Come early in the morning to be able to admire 1001 statues without the crowd. It's a pity you can't take pictures inside the temple. For me, it has been one of the most impressive places in Kyoto.

天台宗の寺院で、正称は蓮華王院本堂。長寛2年 (1164年) 後白河法皇の勅願で平清盛が建立。後焼失したが、文永3年 (1266年) 復原。本堂は国宝、内部中央に湛慶作の千手観音坐像、木造風神・雷神像、木造二十八部衆立像、その左右と背後に1,001躯の木造千手観音立像 (以上国宝) を安置する。内陣の柱間が33間あることからこの名があり、通し矢でも有名。

国宝。現存する本堂(三十三間堂)は鎌倉時代の文永3年に建造されたもの。蓮華王院はもともと後白河上皇の院御所・法住寺殿内に営まれた仏堂だった。三十三間堂内には、手前の雷神像・奥の風神像を始めとした木造二十八部衆立像(すべて国宝)が配置され、その後方には1001体の木造千手観音立像(重要文化財)が整然と安置されています。

正式には蓮華王院。その本堂の通称が「三十三間堂」で南北に延びる御堂陣の柱間が33もあるという建築的な特徴、観音菩薩の変化身三十三身に基づく数を表しているそうです。堂内にある千体千手観音立像の真ん中あたりで御朱印をいただけます。1000体の観音立像は圧巻です。
