Myoshin-Ji

Unclaimed

We stayed two nights here, and were very comfortable. You will be sleeping on the floor on futons. They lent us bikes which we rode all over, seeing the bamboo forest and ancient imperial palace.

Very neat temple with a gorgeous ceiling painting of a dragon. It's a massive complex and offers guest houses to those who want to stay overnight. Was a fun visit!! They had a replica of the painting that I was able to get a neat video of to share with folks!

That was just a very beautiful experience. This place is the largest zen buddhist monastry in japan! Most temples are closed but you can walk through the area and enjoy the architecture and nature. Also, make sure to visit the taizoin garden. The garden is beautiful and has a very special vibe to it. Also, there were no other people when we there, which is great!

Nice temple with transition views and garden. There is tea shop you can sit on tatami and enjoy the quiet moment

Big complex of temples, one of the few places where you can still find quiet ? from the tourists.
