I was in Kyoto to visit my father & mother in law.
Father took me to Horinji-Temple located in Arashiyama area west of Kyoto city.
The temple is quite near to the south end of Togetsukyo-bridge.
The temple has daughter shrine called Dendengu.
I found reliefs of two electric giants; Edsion and Hertz.
