About
Hızlı bilgiler: Sheltered by old cedars and maples, the grounds are threaded by three sparkling waterfalls that soften the city's noise into gentle rushes. Visitors wander mossy lanes past weathered stone lanterns and seasonal blooms, finding vivid hydrangeas in summer and fiery maples in autumn.
Öne çıkanlar: A moss-carpeted trail brings you within arm's reach of the main cascade, where cool mist, dripping stones, and the low chime of temple bells mingle into a startlingly intimate atmosphere. At twilight, small amber votives tucked into stone lanterns cast trembling light over carved Buddhas, and some elders quietly slide a single coin into the offering as candlelight pools on wet granite.
Insider tips
- Wear sturdy shoes, many paths and stone steps are uneven and slippery after rain.
- Arrive before 9:00 a.m. for soft light on the pagoda and near-empty trails for photos.
- Head to the waterfall and lower grove for the best compositions with mossy stones and Jizo statues.
- Carry small cash for donations and snacks, options near the temple are limited.
