Surrounded by an abundance of hydrangeas, this temple is also affectionately known as the “Hydrangea Temple” . In June, it is beautifully adorned with vibrant flowers, offering a captivating and serene atmosphere unique to the rainy season.

Visitors can spend a truly peaceful time here. The temple offers special colorful hydrangea goshuin (temple stamps), and hosts Zen meditation (zazen) and sutra copying (shakyo) sessions.

It is a heartwarming place where the beauty of nature and the tranquility of Buddhism seamlessly blend together.
