Rurikoin is located in the Yase area, a little far from central Kyoto, on the banks of the quiet, clear Kono River. The reflection of the maple leaves reflected on the polished black top is popular as a spectacular view. Recently, many tourists from all over the country have begun to visit. The garden is called the lapis lazuli garden, and the moss shines in a purple lazuli color, making it a must-see.
I took a photo of Ruriko-in, a beautiful temple with fresh green maple leaves and moss. When I visited, it was near dusk and I was able to see it quietly. I also visited last fall, but I was able to see a different and beautiful garden.
