The vast temple grounds are meticulously swept, creating a serene and solemn atmosphere. Beautiful flowers such as hydrangeas and spider lilies bloom in each season, and visitors can enjoy tastefully arranged flower water basins (hanazensui). Large zelkova and ginkgo trees, designated as natural monuments, stand as symbols of the site, and the parking lot is spacious and well-maintained.
