A quaint Buddhist temple especially pretty during the early December red leave season. Usually quiet for a morning stroll.

The main temple is beautiful with 3 gold buddhas inside. The fall leaves in the gardens are absolutely stunning and it’s a truly peaceful place.

Serene, peaceful and zen place with lots of history. Visited the cemetery of the founder of the temple.

This temple isn't on the main routes in Japan, which perhaps helped make it seem more authentic (I am sure it is no more or less authentic than others). Itvwas very quiet with the lack of crowds helping. The grounds were quite stunning with the walk to the grave of Kogyo Daishi so beautiful and peaceful. When I am back in Wakayama I will visit again.

Very peaceful compared to some shrines in Kyoto(probably less tourist know about this place). I enjoyed the atmosphere and the tranquil of the whole place.Do visit this place when you are in Wakayama.
