Founded in 1361 by the lord of Omi province, Sasaki Ujiyori, and the monk Jakushitsu Genko, this Zen Buddhist temple is part of the Rinzai school. Because of the monk's fame as an eminent Zen master, more than 2,000 ascetics are said to have visited here. Today, the temple is famous for its location along the Echi River and for its beautiful colorful leaves in autumn. To get there, you have to take a path along the river, lined with many maple trees, which form a red tunnel at this time of year.
