Shibamatateishakuten Monzen Toraya

A beautiful temple, we were somewhat surprised when someone stop us to tell us we needed to pay (we didn't even know there was a temple), we paid our entrance fee thinking it was just to see the old wooden art but there is a really nice and quiet garden in the back, we stayed here longer than we expected just because it was so relaxing, and during the time we were here there wasn't really anyone else.

The best place that you can time travel ! Lots of old style shops. I enjoyed old snack store so much. There were more Japanese then foreigner travelers. I think they should come here too!

Temple with gorgeous wood carvings and a large shaped pine tree.
