I visited Nanzenji Temple, a popular spot for autumn leaves, and Tenju-an Temple, which has two beautiful gardens, in kimono. The autumn leaves in the eastern garden were in full bloom, and it was a magnificent view that you could see forever while sitting on the porch. Another wonderful view that sighs is the autumn leaves in the south garden, which looks like a painting, cut out by the window frame of the Shoin. When I raised my face to buy a ticket at the entrance, I jumped into my eyes first and was fascinated.

Exhibited for two years, 'Glass Tea House' is coming to end on 9/10 in 2017. The tea house and the benches are all made of glass, and they look beautiful in the light. What is more, the contrast with the outside view is wonderful. If you haven't seen it yet, hurry up!◎null

Ōtoyo Shrine, located on the Tetsugaku-no Michi (Road of Philosophy), has a rare stone guardian mouse, and it's popular to visit here in the Year of the Mouse (one of the twelve zodiac signs in Japan). It's very lovely with a camellia flower on its head. You can find also fox, bird and snake here. We should visit this shrine specially in this year 2020.
