A recommendation from Monk Join

It is not a big temple but you can experience a warm welcome as if you are one of their temple supporters or regular guests. You will see both the gentleness and the strictness of the Tea ceremony here.If you are a University student in Kyoto, this temple will accept your application to enter the Buddhist priesthood.
