Trying out as Protectors of Kiyomizu Temple

Kyoto, Japan view map

After posing for a group photo in front, we followed the crowd into the Kiyomizu Temple 清水寺.
Lots of people wanted to test their strength lifting the 200-lb spear of Musashibo Benkei. Its square shaft had been worn smooth in the past centuries. Those strong enough to lift it straight up are worthy to be the Temple’s protectors. We chickened out with the lightweight version.
