Shoren-in Temple is a short distance away from Chion-in Temple and it is a temple that most people will skip when they are in a tour or just simply overlook when visiting Chio-in Temple. This is one of those hidden gems that if you come and visit, you will be awarded with a picturesque garden and a feeling of tranquility. Sit down and lose yourself while gazing into the garden. It is a great place to escape for a short while.
