Founded in 778 CE, Kiyomizu-dera boasts a history of more than 1,200 years. Legend says the Nara monk Enchin (Kenshin) followed a prophetic dream to Kyoto’s Otowa Mountain, discovered the pure Otowa spring, and built a small hermitage to enshrine the Eleven-Faced Kannon—marking the temple’s humble beginning.

A few years later, in 798 CE, famed general Sakanoue no Tamuramaro and his wife funded the construction of a full-scale temple, naming it “Kiyomizu”—“pure water”—after the crystal-clear spring, turning the site into one of Kyoto’s most venerated holy places.

In 1994, Kiyomizu-dera was inscribed as part of the UNESCO “Historic Monuments of Ancient Kyoto,” cementing its status as a World Heritage Site cherished not only for its architecture but also for over a millennium of living faith and local devotion.

清水寺重點介紹|Highlights of Kiyomizu-dera

1. 清水舞台Kiyomizu Stage

建在懸崖上的木造大舞台,是清水寺最著名的景觀,春賞櫻、秋賞楓絕景首選。

創立後的清水寺經歷多次火災與戰亂,但信眾不斷重建。現在我們所見的本堂和著名的懸空「清水舞台」是在 1633 年,由德川幕府第 3 代將軍德川家光籌資重建完成,利用 139 根巨木、無一根釘子支撐舞台懸空於山坡上。

The vast wooden veranda juts dramatically from the cliff—Kiyomizu-dera’s most iconic sight and the perfect perch for cherry blossoms in spring or fiery maples in autumn.

The present main hall and its cantilevered stage were rebuilt in 1633 under the patronage of Tokugawa Iemitsu, the third shogun. Using 139 massive cypress pillars and no nails, the stage is ingeniously suspended over the hillside.

2. 音羽瀑布Otowa Waterfall

音羽瀑布(Otowa no Taki)在清水寺本堂的後方,這座瀑布流經千年,被視為清水寺名字的由來——「清水」正是指這源源不絕、清澈甘甜的泉水。

音羽瀑布分成三股水流,傳說每一股都代表不同的祝福:

  1. 學業成就 🎓
  2. 良緣姻緣 💕
  3. 健康長壽 💪

參拜者可以排隊用長柄水杓接水飲用,不過根據習俗,只能選一股來喝,祈求六根淨化,據說若三股都喝就顯得貪心,願望反而難以實現。

Otowa Waterfall, located behind the main hall of Kiyomizu-dera, has been flowing for over a thousand years and is said to inspire the temple’s name—“Kiyomizu” literally means “pure water,” referring to this crystal-clear, ever-running spring.

The waterfall is split into three separate streams, each believed to bestow a different blessing:

  • Academic success 🎓
  • Good relationships and love 💕
  • Health and longevity 💪

Visitors queue to catch the water with long-handled ladles, but tradition says you should drink from only one stream to purify your six senses; drinking from all three is thought to be greedy and may negate the blessing.
