This photo captures the beautiful hydrangeas near the gate of Myōgen-in Temple, taken from the entrance area.Meigetsuin Temple in Kamakura during early summer is a popular spot where visitors are enveloped by a landscape of blue hydrangeas. The hydrangeas blooming along the quiet approach path and beside the stone-paved walkways are particularly striking. Further inside, the iris garden offers a serene atmosphere. The view of the garden through the round window provides a special moment, revealing a different charm with each passing season.
