About
A Zen temple at the foot of Arashiyama's mountains, known for serene gardens and teahouses.
This historic Zen temple sits near the bamboo forest. Its expansive, peaceful gardens are the main draw, more so than the building interiors. Teahouses dot the grounds. Accessible via the north gate from the bamboo grove.
