Reikan-ji Temple

From the Dolly Palace of the Emperor of Hoshuiwei, until Meiji, it is the temple of Nimen Monastery, the successor of the emperor and granddaughter. Kyoto's famous Camellia Temple is very beautiful when visiting in spring.

Not a large temple, there are not many architectural highlights, very niche places, few people, but the landscape still left a deep impression, there are certain wild areas of scenery, Nanchanyuan and Yongguantang can still have their own characteristics nearby.

The scale of this monastery is not large, there are few people, it is suitable for slowly finding an angle to enjoy the plants, the location is particularly quiet, it feels like the alternative in this temple, like a private manor.

[Kyoto·Sakamiyaji] Lingjian Temple was founded in 1654 by the Queen of Houmito, a temple of Nimenji Temple held by the Queen. The emperor of Houshuiwei loved camellia, so more than 100 camellia trees were planted in the temple, and they were passed down for nearly 400 years. The camellia of Lingjian Temple was carefully managed, and the "Mosque of the Temple" was known to the world.
