The statue of Kongo Rikishi is situated in the area surrounded by a kongo fence (a fence made of vertical stakes with decoratively shaped finials resembling the ritual object called kongosho used in esoteric Buddhist rites) with lattice work above it. Today, statues of guardian dogs stand in front of the stone lanterns bearing the inscription Kiyomizu Temple. Taken by Felix Beato.==Date:unknown, Place:Kyoto, Photo:F.
