What visitors say

Known for the landscape featuring approximately 5,000 hydrangeas in bloom. Visitors can enjoy seasonal displays at the temizuya (water purification pavilion) and Jizo statues. There is a wide variety of Goshuin (calligraphic seal stamps) available, and lunch can be enjoyed at the adjacent cafe. The parking lot is spacious, but during hydrangea season it becomes very crowded, so caution regarding congestion is advised.
