Stories in the stones一座寺庙，一段时光
Kiyomizu-dera was founded in 778. Its name comes from the pure waters of Otowa Waterfall, and it has long been a sacred site of Kannon devotion. According to legend, the monk Kenshin practiced here, and Sakanoue no Tamuramaro and his wife helped establish a temple enshrining the Eleven-Headed, Thousand-Armed Kannon. The temple buildings have been damaged by fire many times; most of the principal buildings that survive today were rebuilt in 1633. The wooden stage is supported by tall pillars on the hillside. Kiyomizu-dera originally belonged to the Hossō school and became the head temple of the Northern Hossō school in 1965, continuing the teachings of Kannon’s compassion and service to society.清水寺始建于778年，寺名源于音羽瀑布的清泉，长期作为观音信仰的圣地。传说僧人贤心在此修行，坂上田村麻吕夫妇协助建立供奉十一面千手观音的寺院。寺内建筑曾多次遭火灾，现存主要建筑多于1633年重建，木造舞台以高柱支撑于山坡之上。清水寺原属法相宗，1965年成为北法相宗大本山，延续观音慈悲与服务社会的教导。
