Beautiful afternoonby Yahoo | 2007-12-06 19:37:24 | 
I spent a hot afternoon here wandering around. The grounds are beautiful with lots of shade and water features to make you forget the heat. Lots of spots for meditation or just watching the people. Even though there were many people around, it was quiet and serene. The gift shop had lots of cute souvenirs and other japanese items. Great place to take pictures!
