６６、shiga(1).

色んな展望台行ったけど、比叡山ドライブウェイからの景色は、ほんと良かったです。びわ湖一望できます。ちょうど、京都と滋賀県の間の山なので、ドライブウェイ走ってる時、京都府の看板と、滋賀県の看板が、出てきましたよ。

比叡山延暦寺と、石清水八幡宮は、昔から京都を守ってきた重要な場所と言われてます。

I’ve been to all sorts of viewing platforms, but the view from the Mount Hiei Driveway was truly magnificent. You can enjoy a panoramic view of Lake Biwa. As it’s a mountain right on the border between Kyoto and Shiga Prefectures, when I was driving along the road, I saw signs for both Kyoto and Shiga Prefectures.

Hieizan Enryaku-ji and Iwashimizu Hachimanguu are said to be important sites that have long protected Kyoto.

まだ僕が行った時は、まだ改修工事中で。根本中堂のところの鶴喜蕎麦でお蕎麦いただいたのですが、人気の天ざる蕎麦がなく・・・、残念。学食みたいな感じのこじんまりとした食堂でしたよ。

比叡山延暦寺は、僕の風水の属性のパワースポットなので、行ってみたら、もうビックリ。千手観音菩薩と三面出世大黒天様が。ついついパシャリ。

赤坂の日枝神社も僕のパワースポットになってたから、日枝神社と比叡山延暦寺（日吉大社）は、山王信仰でセットですね。

織田信長の比叡山焼き討ちの際の事も、書かれてましたよ。

When I went there, it was still undergoing renovation work. I had some soba at Tsuruki Soba near konpon Chudo, but unfortunately they didn’t have their popular tezaru soba…. It was a cosy little canteen, a bit like a university canteen.

Hieizan Enryaku-ji is a power spot associated with my fuusui element, so when I went there, I was absolutely amazed. The Thousand-Armed Kannon Bodhisattva and the Three-Faced Daikokuten. I just couldn’t resist snapping a photo.

Hie Shrine in Akasaka had also become a personal power spot for me, so Hie Shrine and hieizan Enryaku-ji (Hiyoshi Taisha) are essentially a set within the Sannō faith.

It also mentioned the incident when Oda Nobunaga set fire to Hieizan.
