On November 14, we went to
Daikozenji (大興善寺), a
Tendai temple in the mountainous area of
Kiyama,
Saga. It's the best spot for azaleas in spring and autumn leaves in November.
We stopped our car in a big parking lot. While seeing a typical Japanese countryside on both sides of the road, we came to the temple entrance. From here, we must go up a long staircase to the temple.
When we went up the stairs of 127 steps, we'll see a
Sanmon or the temple gate.
We saw beautiful autumn colors around there.
The main hall.
After that we took a tour to the Chigiri-en (契園) azalea garden. An admission fee of 500 yen per person is payable by cash.

We found a lovely Japanese garden on the way.
The garden. In the later half of April and the early half of May about 50,000 azaleas are in bloom here.
