Shin-nyo-do gardens

Shin-nyo-do main hall & three storied pagoda
the newer garden designed by SHIGEMORI's grandson
Here are the photos of the gardens you can see if you pay and go beyond the main hall of the temple called Shin-nyo-do. The large premises of the temple themselves are worth a visit but the interior tour was worth paying for. Not crowded at all, especially because it was a cold winter day, but even in high seasons of Kyoto, the area is relatively quiet. The remains of autumn foliage were still enjoyed when I went there in December. If you try, you can find such places in Kyoto. That's the wealth of the ancient capital.
