Mitaki Temple - Established about 1,200 years ago for an austere lifestyle by Kobo Daishi (Kukai), who also founded the Daishoin Temple in Miyajima. Once you visit Mitaki Temple you will find yourself transported to a mysterious past time. Everyone enjoys Mitaki temple for the following reasons:
-
Seasonal Beauty -- The Temple allows a person to experience its beauty with heightened senses – For all the seasons, Mitaki Temple makes you enjoy the great greenery, autumn leaves, or snowing quietness. The Temple is recognized as the most famous location to view the autumn leaves in Hiroshima city.
-
The 1,200-year history has resulted in a lot of stone statues and monuments, and the structures and atmosphere are very different from ordinary temples. This tour will explore all of them, while you are understanding the traditional Japanese temple worship culture.
Shukkeien - This garden is the most famous Japanese garden in Hiroshima. Designed and developed by Soko Ueda, a master of tea ceremony. The garden opened about 400 years ago with tea houses. ”Shukkeien” means "Miniaturized Scenery Garden" and is a circuit-style garden where a pond is arranged in the center with small islands, simulated mountains, valleys, bridges and Japanese style structures to sit and enjoy the sights.
Shukkeien Garden offers incredibly beautiful views which can be enjoyed through all four seasons.
