The hydrangeas at Daichu-ji Temple offer unmissable beauty as a symbol of early summer. Particularly striking are the hydrangeas blooming profusely on both sides of the stairs leading to the temple, harmonizing with the tranquil grounds to create a soothing scene. The recommended time to visit is early morning.In the crisp morning air, you can savor the vivid colors of the hydrangeas in the quiet, before the crowds arrive. The dew-kissed blooms, bathed in light, shine even more beautifully, making this the perfect time for photography. Experience the serene atmosphere of the temple and the richness of nature during this time of day. We highly recommend visiting Daichūji Temple's hydrangeas.
