Jikkoin Temple is right across from the entrance on Nanzenin on Ohara just north of Kyoto. I almost passed on it since the price was high (700 Yen) and it seamed small but I went ahead inside. I got some tea and a sweet to enjoy while I looked upon the gardens. The gardens were lovely. It is a sub-temple of Shorin-in back in 1013.
This garden, Keishin-en, takes water from the Ritsusen River. It is a great small garden and you can take your time viewing while you drink your tea.
Lots of moss.
Even the stone lantern had some moss cover on it.
Thanks for looking.
