Belonging to the Zen Rinzai Sect, Sorinji temple is noted for its Japanese garden called Ryushintei in the back of the temple. I rented a bicycle from a hotel in front of Ube-Shinkawa Station and rode to the temple.Jan 20, 2013

|
I had a map in hand, but had a little difficulty finding the temple until and rode through a few roads and came across the temple in a quiet neighborhood.Jan 20, 2013
