What visitors say
This prestigious temple has strong ties to the Imperial Family, exuding an atmosphere reminiscent of the Imperial Palace. During special public openings, visitors can tour the interior of the Shinden (main hall) and the shoin (study), which are adorned with lavish fusuma paintings. The shirasa (white sand) garden, featuring a shitsumatsu (checkerboard) pattern, is also highly praised for its beauty. The temple offers comprehensive guidance for visitors, including the provision of Goshuin (a temple's calligraphic seal stamp), detailed explanations of the exhibits, and clear information on whether photography is permitted.
