About

Tranquil pond mirroring trees and Kofuku-ji's pagoda.

A short walking loop circles this pond, where surrounding trees and the nearby temple pagoda reflect on the water. Benches along the shore invite visitors to watch fishermen and rest after a day of sightseeing. The atmosphere is peaceful and restorative.
