Even a visiting novice can learn plenty at Chishaku-in.
The wide precincts hold a number of treasures. Standing from the open space of any one of these and your gaze will fall onto the gardens; yet another stunning sight.
Aside from special occasions, you can enter and pray at the temple completely free of charge. This is a real recommendation for those wanting to experience a real-life visit of temple lodgings in Kyoto.
