What makes it special
About Engen-ji
- Enjoy Seasonal Scenery: Be sure to capture photos of the changing landscapes, such as the brilliant autumn colors or the serene winter snowscapes.
- Night-time Illumination: The illumination held during the autumn season offers a mystical world that is completely different from the daytime experience.
- Embrace the Silence: We recommend spending a luxurious moment listening to the sounds of nature and forgetting the noise of the city.
- Wear Comfortable Shoes: Since the temple grounds are surrounded by nature and include uneven terrain, visiting with comfortable walking shoes is highly recommended.
