Kyoto Travel | Every photo of Sanzen-in is beautiful

Ohara Sanzen-in‍‍Address: 〒601-1242 Kyoto City, Sakyo Ward, Ohara Raigoin-cho 540 Ohara is located in the suburbs of Kyoto. It has been known as "Fish Mountain" for more than a thousand years and is the birthplace of Buddhist music. It is a sacred place for the belief in the Pure Land of Nembutsu, and Sanzen-in is the main attraction of Ohara. The temple is full of ancient trees, moss, and streams. Cherry blossoms in April, azaleas in May, hydrangeas in July, and red leaves in autumn make the natural scenery beautiful all year round.‍‍‍‍‍ The temple has two beautiful gardens, Shuheki-en and Yusei-en. Shuheki-en is a pond garden for visitors to view from the guest hall. It is said to have been built by the tea master Sowa Kanamori in the Edo period. Looking out from the garden, you can see the lush greenery, the green trees, and the pond reflecting the shadows of the trees. You can't help but stop and look at the beautiful summer scenery. The best way to enjoy the garden is to enjoy the tea and food while enjoying the scenery. Sanzen-in offers a set of matcha and yokan for 600 yen. After ordering, you can sit on the red seats and enjoy the scenery up close. The summer of Sanzen-in is already a stunning beauty, not to mention the beauty of the four seasons with cherry blossoms in spring and maple leaves in autumn. I just want to stay here and see the scenery of the four seasons at a glance...
