Shoren-In temple, 青蓮院

Shoren-in #temple, Inside Kogosho building
Higashiyama, Kyoto 2010



Shoren-In is one of the treasures of Higashiyama. This is usually not so crowded since this is near other popular spots such as Chion-In or Yasaka shrine. The temple consists in 4 main buildings, a tea house and a garden.
