Kenninji is a temple of the Zen sect, one of the main branches of Japanese Buddhism. Buddhism, founded approximately 2,500 years ago in India by Shakyamuni Buddha, teaches that the inherent suffering of life can be transcended through equanimity, wisdom, and compassion.
The Zen sect, dating back to sixth-century China, seeks the realization of this ideal through a strict training system stressing work and meditation.
At present, there are three branches of Zen in Japan - the Rinzai Soutou and Oubaku schools. Kenninji belongs to the Rinzai tradition. The temple was founded in 1202 by the priest Yousai (1141-1215).

Old teashops line the street and Maiko and Geisha walk the streets gracefully. When thinking of Kyoto, the famous Gion red-light district comes to mind. The main street of Gion is Hanamikoji Street. It street has a nostalgic feel, as if it was right out of an old sepia colored photograph.
Hanamikoji Street runs north to south through the north area of Higashiyama-ku district. To the north is Sanjyo-dori Street and to the south is Kennin-ji Temple and is 1.4 km in length. Shijyo-dori Street on the north side has contemporary entertainment such as bars and pubs, the south area is more of a traditional red-light district. What was originally the main approach to the Kennin-ji Temple turned into a street lined with teashops and has been developed into a special area where historical landscape is preserved. Visitors can enjoy a stroll along this street with a traditionally Kyoto feel.

Parks & Nature
It is a nearby park.
Maruyama Park is at its best in early April when the cherry trees start to bloom and hordes of people descend on the park for blossom-viewing parties. You can see groups of people picnicking under the trees and enjoying the lovely view. The centerpiece of the park is a splendid old weeping cherry tree, whose drooping branches fill up with glorious blossoms. When lit up at night, the tree is an otherworldly vision of beauty.
Maruyama Park is the oldest park in Kyoto, much beloved by residents and young people. It lies next to Yasaka-jinja Shrine, at the base of Kyoto's eastern mountains, and covers an area of 86000 square meters. It contains stroll gardens, rest houses, small orchards, Japan
