Kyoto's love stones
Hoping to be lucky in love? Try the love stones challenge
Take a left behind the main hall at Kiyomizu-dera Temple and you'll find a small shrine dedicated to the gods of love and matchmaking! Here two "love stones" are set in the ground 18 metres apart. Stand at one stone, close your eyes and see if you find your way to the other stone without peeking. Those who make it will be lucky in love. You can have a friend help guide you between the stones but this is interpreted to mean you'll need a matchmaker to help you with your love life.
