The path to the temple gate
With autumn leaves lining both sides, the view is breathtaking.

A very quiet and well-maintained garden.

Going further into the hall...it's no exaggeration to call it Chikusei City's Little Kyoto.
The moss and bright red leaves were truly beautiful. ♥
Going further in, many people were taking photos with their cameras.

The temple grounds are calming and unobtrusive.
The garden incorporates Buddhist ideas...
The temple particularly values ​​the teachings of the Thirteen Buddhas.

The green maples and moss are stunning in May,
and the hydrangeas bloom in June.
It's a wonderful temple worth visiting in every season.
