#cherryblossom25 If you’re into peaceful spots with major cherry blossom charm, Taizo-in at Myoshin-ji is a total win. This place is tucked away inside a massive Zen temple complex, and it feels like you’ve stumbled into a secret garden. The cherry trees aren’t everywhere, but the ones they do have? Gorgeous. You get this perfect blend of blooming sakura and traditional Zen garden vibes, super calming, super aesthetic. Way less crowded than the big-name spots, so you can actually breathe and soak in the beauty without a million selfie sticks in your face. Plus, the pond and mossy stone paths make everything look straight out of a Studio Ghibli scene. It’s not about flashy hanami parties here, it’s more like a quiet, poetic sakura experience. If you want to escape the chaos and get your cherry blossom fix in a chill, soulful spot, Taizo-in hits just right.

Miaoxin Temple Retreat This time to go to the Miaoxin Temple Retreat is mainly to experience the vegetarian meal and appreciate the town of the temple treasure branch sakura Miaoxin Temple is very large, there is a large The size of the tower is very small, and the retreat is one of the most famous temples that has been loved for more than 600 years. In the temple, there is the dry landscape garden of Kano Nobuyuki, the oldest ink paintings in Japan such as the "Sculp" of the masters of the , Yu Xiangyuan, the water hyacinth, etc. This time I am scheduled to enjoy cherry blossoms at night. The package was booked at the travel agency. After the evening, after the lectures, everyone would have dinner together, and then they could be disbanded by taking pictures in the courtyard. The explanation is only Japanese, which is roughly to understand the history of the retreat of the Tibetan monastery and the observations in the temple. Then we will take us to see the dry water courtyard and the scoop map. (4) Hearing that many temples are now dominated by cherry blossoms and maple leaves, but the dry water court of the retreat has not planted any seasonal flowers because of this court. Intention to the "unchanged beauty", no matter which season, seeing is always such a static beauty of the picture, an eternal beauty. Figure 6 The water hole, listening carefully, you can really hear the crisp sound of the water droplets echoing, like the crispness of the instrument. Then we will take us to the place where we can eat vegetarian food. Everyone will sit and eat in this row. I thought it was a package. As shown in Figure 5, the result is a lot of vegetarian dishes, and I eat it in a circle. It is also very full. I have eaten a vegetarian meal in China. I said that the Japanese vegetarian meal is still delicious. Although it is vegan, it is very delicate. After dinner, we took a walk in Yuxiangyuan. Figure 8, when the huge branch of the cherry blossoms at the door has begun to light up, this year the cherry blossoms opened a little later, so when we went, we only 6 points, I believe that the huge force in the bloom should be invisible to many temples. This is really a classic, belonging to the treasure of the town temple. If you have time, it is recommended to go once, so that Zen experience is a very rare life experience.
