Beautiful place to visit during the hydrangea season. The parking costs 500 yens per hour but the entrance is free. The place is usually quiet except during the hydrangea season. A very worthwhile visit.

Excellent temple and large garden. In the summer the hydrangeas are everywhere.

It is a beautiful park. When the ajisai are in full bloom in mid June, it is spectacular.

It's a wonderful place. During the rainy season it's quite busy with the hydrangea festival, but usually it is a quiet place. Well suited for a picnic, the nature is beautiful and it is a bit hidden so it is mainly popular among locals.
