Shoren-in temple has a nice garden. Especially it’s good in summer. In the 1995 campaign of JR Tokai, they said “Only the thermometer saying it’s a summer”. When you sit on the floor of this temple in August, you could feel cool wind. And you can drink a Japanese maccha tea. It might be your good experience in Japan.
