Kodaiji Temple Spring, 2009
Getting a street view of a temple in Kyoto.
Shooting for that feature.
We spoke to the head priest.
"What are your thoughts on releasing Google Maps to the public?"
"Well, we highly appreciate that our temple grounds are"
"the first to be filmed in this way and shared with the public."
We hope that many people will
"come and visit us after using the informational feature."
What are the highlights of Kodaiji Temple?
"What you see behind me has remained unchanged"
"since Kodaiji Temple was established 400 years ago."
It has mostly retained its original form.
When you visit Kodaiji Temple,
"I think you will particularly enjoy walking in the garden."
"What is your advice to foreign tourists visiting the temple?"
"Although we’ve begun to communicate with tourists in foreign languages, "
"we are not very proficient in these languages at the moment."
"The Japanese are rather introverted so if foreign tourists proactively reach out to us,"
"I think they will have an easier time acquiring information for their sightseeing."
"Please share any last words you have for this video."
"Thank you very much for watching this video to the end."
"you will enjoy the grounds no matter when you visit."
"Please, come to see our temple. I pray that you will visit."
Thank you very much.
