Suirokaku stands quietly in the back of Nanzenji Temple. It looks great whether you take it from an angle or from the front. It is a popular spot with beautiful fresh greenery in summer and autumn leaves in autumn. I was healed by a lovely kimono couple. This is a recommended spot for walking around kimono.

It looks like a sunflower field of wind chimes. The sunflower season is over, but there is a healthy wind chime sunflower field here! Look for hydrangea blue maple wind chimes, colorful wind chimes, teru teru bozu wind chimes and inome wind chimes.

Yanagidani Kannon, famous for hydrangeas. A lot of hydrangeas in the precincts are in full bloom. The colorful flower wash basins placed in various places and the umbrella sky with hydrangea pattern that started this year are also beautiful. Potted hydrangeas were lined up on the steps of the torii next to the main hall, and it was a wonderful photo spot.

If you want to go sightseeing in Kyoto, you should visit Kinkakuji Temple! ︎ Recently, the construction has been completed and it has become beautiful. Where should I take the photo with Kinkakuji? It is recommended to take it from a distance, but it was also beautiful to take it from near.

Shorinji-san, who always has beautiful flower water. In addition to the main flower water, there is also marble water, so please find it! This time, Hanatama Tesui, a collaboration with JR Central, is being held! There are also many Pokemon. Do you have a favorite Pokemon? In the hot summer, it hurts to float flowers without seeing them, so at this temple, it's a nice idea to decorate the flowers around instead of on the water!
