    Wi-Fi使って今の住職が積極的に案内してくれます。今風のお坊さんと、歴史ある塔頭、今のご住職のおじいさんがしつらえた庭園、見所沢山です。お茶も頂けます。(有料)
  • 600年を越える歴史を持つ塔頭

    46の塔頭の中でも屈指の古刹で、山門を潜ると広い敷地が広がっています。宮本武蔵も修行したと言う方丈(本堂)、狩野元信が作庭した枯山水庭園である元信の庭、垂れ桜と紅葉で有名な余香苑(池泉回遊式庭園)、そして国宝の瓢鮎図(写し)と見応えが有ります。目立たない場所にあるのですが、蹲と水琴窟も、竹筒に耳を当てると美しい水の響きが聞こえて来ます(まるでスピーカーのよう)。茶室もとても立派で、今回は時間がなく...
  • 雨の日だったので・・・

    雨の日だったので、ゆっくり歩きまわって満喫とはいきませんでしたが、落ち着いた雰囲気とお庭は素晴らしい。妙心寺に行ったら是非。
