As passing through the one pillar entrance gate, I needed to walk along the narrow road to get to the temple.
I found the piled stones by the road to the temple.
Those stones were a little bit far from the road. So I almost couldn't have noticed them.
As always, the hidden things seemed to have something mysterious power.
Piling stones was believed as a ceremony of traditional religion at any rate.
Wherever I visited old villages, there were always piling stones at the entrance of the village.
There were several interpretations on those piling stones.
Someone said that they had piled the stones for self-defense purpose.
Some other people urged that was the kind of ceremony of primitive religion.
In my view, the piled stones were close to the ceremony of traditional religion.
Next to the piled stones by the road, there was the 4 heaven kings gate.
The 4 heaven kings looked scarce as usual.
When you die, you have to pass this entrance to enter into the paradise.
At that time, those 4 heaven kings will decide to pass you into the paradise or not.
The gate was not special. But the scenery through the 4 heaven kings gate was so wonderful.
