• Access the temple via the atmospheric walkway that extends straight across Shinobazu Pond from the eastern side, lined with tea shops where you can stop for refreshments.
• Expect a lively atmosphere with food stalls lining the entrance area, especially popular with international tourists, creating a festival-like environment rather than a purely contemplative temple setting.
• Explore the stone monuments dedicated to water birds, turtles, and fish on the temple grounds, which commemorate the historical Buddhist ceremonies of compassion when these animals were released into the pond.
• Look for the unique Ugaijin statue, a serpent-bodied deity with a bearded human head, outside the Main Hall next to a large biwa lute sculpture. Inside, admire the dynamic dragon painting on the ceiling by Kibo Kodama from 1966.
• Visit during summer to see the pond covered entirely with lotus leaves creating a dramatic green sea around the temple, or in autumn for colorful foliage contrasting with the withering lotus plants.
