Kozen-ji

The temple features four distinct garden areas, including the Kanuntei Garden with its dry landscape design representing clouds and mountains patterns.

The temple establishment dates to 1434 under the direction of the 12th Kiso lord Nobumichi, who selected this location for a Rinzai Buddhist Myoshinji temple.

The temple gardens integrate traditional Zen principles, where stone arrangements and plant selections create spaces specifically designed for meditation practice.

Visitors can participate in seasonal ceremonies and temple events throughout the year, with garden tours offering insights into Buddhist architectural elements.

The Syoryu Garden stands as one of four specialized garden spaces within the temple grounds, each presenting different interpretations of natural elements.
