Luxury Hotel Planned in Front of Kyoto's Ninnaji Temple: "Even Though There Is Still Traffic Congestion" - Judicial Decision: Asahi Shimbun

Ninna-ji Temple (Ukyo Ward, Kyoto City), a World Heritage Site founded in 888 (Ninna 4) during the early Heian period, is also famous for its late-blooming "Omurozakura" cherry blossoms. Residents in the surrounding area have filed a lawsuit to put a stop to the construction of a luxury hotel in front of the temple gate. The construction will affect the landscape and traffic environment.
