Tenryu-ji Temple is located in the heart of Arashiyama, a famous tourist destination in Kyoto.
It is a place visited by many tourists, and you can definitely find it if you go to Arashiyama.
One of the famous features of Tenryu-ji Temple is the “Unryu-zu,” a painting of clouds and a dragon on the ceiling.
It is painted in a dimly lit space without lighting, allowing you to feel the immense power of the Unryu-zu.
It is open to the public on Saturdays, Sundays, and national holidays, and additionally, it is available on weekdays for a limited time.
Another famous feature of Tenryu-ji Temple is its beautiful garden.
The Sogenchi Garden, which incorporates Arashiyama as a borrowed landscape, is incredibly beautiful and leaves visitors in awe!
I visited during the cherry blossom season, and many tourists were there.
This tree was particularly large and very beautiful.
In addition to cherry blossoms, camellias and rhododendrons were also in bloom, making Tenryu-ji Temple renowned for its beautiful garden.
