Notes & Remarks
■ Garden The garden of Shoren-in Temple consists of four gardens, and the first of the route is a garden that is said to have been created by Ai Ami in the Muromachi period. This garden is a circular garden centered on Ryushin Pond, with Senshin Falls and Overlong Bridge. Tsukiyama and large ponds leave the remnants of the Muromachi period. The next step is the garden created by Enshu Kobori in the Edo period. Also known as the garden of Kirishima, there is an old tree of Kirishima azalea. The maple blooms in autumn. The next garden is the front yard of Yoshifumi-tei, which is said to have been created by Yuhi Omori in the Edo period. It is an elegant appearance with the reconstructed Yoshifumi-tei. The last is the moss garden in front of the Shinden, and there are Tachibana in the rightkon and Sakura in the leftkon. Originally white sand, it has been covered with moss since some time, and is now famous as a garden of moss. In addition, the Shogunzuka Seiryuden in the precincts of the Tobichi area is beautiful throughout the four seasons, including the garden of Karesansui, peaches and cherry blossoms in spring, and autumn leaves in autumn. ※ Night light-up is held in spring and autumn.
