“Hokokuji” where you can enjoy delicious Japanese tea and beautiful bamboo forest.

The bamboo forest is cooling, you know?

And it’s the feeling that seems to come out to a “Kaguya hime” (the Japanese old tale).

There is the place where you can drink “maccha green tea” near the bamboo forest.

It is the spot that you can enjoy some Japanese culture.

If you’re wearing “yukata”, you can enjoy the Japanese summer.

However, worship time is slightly early until 16:00, so please be careful.
