Low-key Zen. Nice one. Acres of wonderful forested walking paths on the hillside behind the temple buildings ... filled with old trees and statuary. We were impressed by the numerous volunteer locals meticulously clipping away at the intruding weeds. Parking, lavatory and cemetery included at no charge!
Beautiful temple with different types of sculptures scattered throughout the forest.
Best time to enjoy during autumn.
Other time forest is full of lush green leaves.
If you are trying to visit Hakone you shouldn't miss this place. Very peaceful environment. You can enjoy Autumn leaves in November or snow in winter.We visited in November so we could see Autumn leaves🍁. Some bamboo trees are there. Statues are great. They are built from stones. If you are hungry you can enjoy noodles near this temple as soba noodles restaurant is at the entrance of the temple. From this temple pompass field is also near.
Beautiful Buddhist temple hidden amongst the suburb. My brother and I went around 5pm, and we were the only ones there. It's small, quiet, and so peaceful. Definitely come in and have a moment of peace to yourself here ♡
