Tendai Buddhism sites cover the Japanese school founded by Saicho and centered historically on Mount Hiei, held apart from the general Buddhist grouping for the same reason Shingon and Theravada are: a distinct monastic lineage and canon give the school its own sacred geography rather than one shared with Buddhism broadly. A site belongs here when its significance is specifically Tendai rather than tied to a different Japanese Buddhist school or to unaffiliated Buddhist practice.
