今回は写経を体験しました。由緒ある写経馬場は薬師如来様に見守られて、有意義な時間でした。写経場内では撮影禁止です。外に出ての写経の撮影はOK。その後は、お抹茶とお茶菓子を頂けます。雲龍院さんのお茶菓子はいつ来ても美味しいですよ🎵

雲龍院は泉涌寺(真言宗)の塔頭寺院です。 西国薬師四十九霊場の第40番札所でもあり、ご本尊は平安時代作の薬師三尊像です。(私は10年ほど前に西国薬師四十九霊場を満願しています。) 蓮華の間の障子窓ごしの景色や、書院の丸窓「悟りの窓」が有名で、この日(2024年12月8日)は窓越しの紅葉が綺麗でした。 私(大阪府在住)は花や紅葉の写真を撮るのが好きで、一眼レフカメラを片手に全国の花や紅葉の名所を巡っています。 この日は京都鷹峯の源光庵も訪れ、源光庵の「悟りの窓」も見てきました。 日曜日にもかかわらず拝観者は多くなく、静寂なひとときを過ごせました。 拝観料は400円でした。

泉涌寺の奥の離れ座敷、雲龍院 紅葉も隠れ名勝だと思います。 日本の建築と庭が一体となって、美しい 風景を作り出しています。 部屋の中に居る人から見える景色が 最高に美しくなる設計に魅せられました。 ため息が出ます
