Arhat is an abbreviation for arhat and is a Buddhist saint. Approximately 70 stone statues were built here as a memorial to the Great Kobe Earthquake. It's a recent product, so it's not very famous, but it's very realistic and detailed, and it's so large that it looks scary. It's worth seeing once. It would also be interesting to compare it with the 1200 Arhats at Atago Nenbutsuji Temple.

I happened to pass this road and was surprised! A group of mysterious stone statues is a must see if you go to Arashiyama, Kyoto A very interesting tourist spot in my opinion I want it to become popular as a rare spot.

渡月橋から川沿いを上流沿いに歩き、天龍寺に向かってを歩いていると出会えると思います。この辺りをブラブラ歩くのも悪くはありません。突然のように羅漢さんがお出迎えしてくれたような気分です。この辺りは、整備され、綺麗になっています。この辺りの紅葉もいいですね。

2020/8/8 嵐山にこんな所があったの知りませんでした。 宝厳院へ行こうと思ってたんですが、今は一般拝観できなかったです。 で、宝厳院の前に嵐山羅漢がありました。いろんな像があって面白いです。

2023.10.29. Currently, there are about 2 weeks left until the autumn leaves season? I think the best time to see the autumn leaves is mid-November.

(Translated by Google) A strange group that suddenly appears on the way to Hogon-in 🧐 It is a statue of Rakan donated from all over the country to memorialize the victims of the Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake (January 17, 1995). Each has its own unique appearance, but the features make you feel somehow humorous. Is it at least a comfort 🙏 (Original) 宝厳院へ行く途中に突然現れる異様な集団🧐 阪神淡路大震災(1995年1月17日)の犠牲者を供養するために全国から寄進され建てられた羅漢像です。 それぞれ個性的な出立ちですが、お顔立ちはどことなくユーモラスさを感じさせます。せめてものお慰めなのでしょうか🙏

羅漢は｢阿羅漢｣の略でインド仏教において修行者の到達し得る最高位です。 嵐山羅漢は阪神淡路大震災の追悼や先祖供養、嵐山の守護、企業の繁栄などなどの願いが込められているそうです。

嵐山羅漢。 阪神・淡路大震災を機に宝厳院さんの声かけから羅漢像を置き始め、今では宝厳院前に約70体の羅漢像が並んでいます。

Nice

Amazing place. The face expressions are super interesting to see.

Cluster of statues for all tastes! They have very incisive expressions, passing by by chance I stopped to observe them all. It seems strange to me that this point is not reported

From Togetsukyo Bridge to the west along the Katsura River Go 400m and go north 150m Opposite Hogon-in Temple A place with a mysterious atmosphere Yes. 70 Arhat statues It has a unique look Yoda and the crying old man similar. Lighted up at night It's an increasingly mysterious place.

After a little hike up the mountain you will find yourself in a lovely little park surrounded by many monkeys. They are truly beautiful to watch and the babies are adorable. I was a bit worried at first but there are many employees who guard the park and the monkeys so I felt very safe. Definitely recommend!

The unique individual faces of the statues are so fun to look at. Reminds me of the one I saw in Kawagoe. Memorable sight to see as you head towards Arashiyama Bamboo Grove or Tenriyu-ji.

天龍寺の塔堂に法厳院が有る。紅葉の名所で、それはもう見事である。 その法厳院前に突如嵐山羅漢と呼ばれる羅漢像が建っている。 羅漢とは仏教を信仰し、修行をする者の中でも、最高の悟りを得た尊敬を受けるにふさわしい人らしい。 で、阪神大震災の後、法厳院の呼び掛けで犠牲者供養の為に羅漢像を建てようと… お陰で全国各地の個人や企業、そして寺院からも寄進が…これが始まりだとさ😃 そう言えば、横の石柱に寄進者の名前が刻まれているわ！今日は20cmの雪帽子をかぶり、重たそう😉 もっと見たいって ? 一寸歩いて愛宕念仏寺に行くと良い。1200体が待ってますわ✌️

行こう、行こうって思っていたところです。結構、コンパクトなスペースにびっしりといらっしゃる感じです。お天気もよかったし、渡月橋からも近くって♡心安らぐひとと木でした～

(Translated by Google) There are many small Buddha statues lined up, and even the ones with a human touch have a unique look. (Original) ちょっとした仏像がいくつも並んでいて、人情味あるものまで個性豊かな表情をしてます。

嵐山観光で来たことがなかった場所でした。良かったです。

(Translated by Google) Arashiyama Arhat is usually on the road! It looks new compared to the Arhat of Sekihoji Temple! But it's worth seeing! No admission fee required! (Original) 嵐山羅漢普通に道に有ります！石峰寺の羅漢と比べると新しいような！しかし見ごたえは有ります！拝観料いらないのだから！

Although it is just a stone statue, I was drawn to its lively and human expression and couldn't help but stop and stare at it. It's a little off the main street, so you can take your time to see it even on holidays. The 500 Arhats specifically refer to high-ranking monks who were direct disciples of Shakyamuni Buddha. It was set up as a memorial service for the Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake (1995) at the request of the nearby Hogon-in Temple, and it appears that donations can still be made. In addition to the 500 Arhats in Arashiyama, the one at Atago Nenbutsuji Temple is also famous, and the 500 Arhats by Kazunobu Kano, which is specially exhibited in the spring and autumn at the main hall of Seiryoji Temple (Saga Shakado), also has a story. This is a highly recommended work that is full of sex and worth seeing.
