A paradise of moss and flowers. Relax and unwind at Sanzen-in Temple in Kyoto...🌿⛩️

Sanzenin Temple, located in the inner sanctum of Ohara, Kyoto, is a soothing space where a moss-covered garden, seasonal flowers, and historic architecture come together in harmony. Once you leave the approach to the temple, you'll be greeted by a soft carpet of green and beautiful buildings. It's picturesque no matter what season you visit - cherry blossoms in spring, green maples in summer, autumn leaves in fall, and snowy scenery in winter. The "Wrapper Jizo" statue perched amid the moss is especially popular. Its gentle expression is adorable and makes for great photos♪ You can spend some time in the tranquil air, coming into contact with the world of nature and Buddhism, and having your mind cleansed. 📍Basic information (check the official website for the latest information) ✴︎Address: 540 Raigyoincho, Ohara, Sakyo-ku, Kyoto City, Kyoto Prefecture ✴︎Access: Take a bus from Kyoto Station for about 60 minutes, get off at "Ohara", then walk for about 10 minutes ✴︎Admission fee: 700 yen for adults, 400 yen for junior and senior high school students, 150 yen for elementary school students ✴︎Opening hours: 9:00-17:00 (varies depending on the season) [Travel Tips] ・There are few people in the early morning hours, so you can enjoy the silence and the moss garden at your leisure. ・There are restaurants in the area that use yuba and Kyoto vegetables, so lunch is also recommended! ・A "temple walk" that takes you around Jakkoin and Hosenin along with the nature of Ohara is recommended. Sanzenin is where you can encounter beautiful nature, history, and a relaxing atmosphere. Get away from the hustle and bustle of Kyoto and enjoy some quiet time for yourself🌸 #Spring0yentrip #Domestictravel
