Moss garden is a garden of Saihou-ji temple. You can see the great moss in this temple. When you visit there, first of all you should do is the ‘Shakyo’. Shakyo is hand-copying of Buddhism sutras. I think it is little bit difficult for the people don’t know Japanese language. But don’t worry. It is difficult for Japanese people! We don’t use a writing brush in normal living. You can do it like a painting. I think it should be your great experience.
After Shakyo, you would go to the Moss Garden. It will be another great experience.
