About 10 minutes walk from Kojima station. When you leave the station building, go to the left. If you pass near a place like a lumber storage area and go to National Highway 192, there is a pedestrian bridge that goes out in front of the entrance of Honrakuji Temple.

As soon as you put 300 yen in the box at the entrance and enter, you will see the dry landscape garden. This is also wonderful, but he showed me the tea room in the back. A word that each structure is delicate and wonderful! It is a good idea to watch it with the explanation of the priest.

It is a temple in a slightly higher place and you can see the Yoshino River very beautifully. It seems that the garden is being built and the scenery is very nice. If you make a reservation here again, you can enjoy shojin ryori.
