One unique place. Hometown of the Tenrikyo Buddist Sect International: http://religiousmovements.lib.virginia.edu/nrms/tenrikyo.html.The Salt lake City of Japan and one of the cleanest, safest cities you will ever see. According to The New Nelson Japanese-English Character Dictionary, ten means "heavens," ri means "truth" or "reason," and kyo means "teach." Altogether, Tenrikyo means "Religion of Divine Wisdom" , and from this translation one can sense the essence of Tenrikyo doctrine. One basic idea behind this dogma is known as "Kashimono- karimono," (things lent, things borrowed). According to this train of thought, man controls his mind alone, and his body is on loan. This temporary vessel should be used to serve God in order to avoid the accumulation hokori or the "dust" a self-serving life of unhappiness on the mind and soul. Check out the original Steam Locomotive that once ran from Hirahata station to Tenri in the 50s and 60s on the other side of the station where you can also rent a bicycle all day for 500 yen to explore the city.
