Eihō-ji Temple

On Saturday afternoon M and I took the subway, train and then walked to Eiho-ji Temple in Tajimi city. I was interested in seeing the temple and the bamboo forests on the surrounding grounds. I couldn't find directions in advance so was forced to put the longitude and latitude coordinates from the Wikipedia page into google maps and printout a map which we used as a guide, fortunately it only ended up being a 25min walk, but with a significant chunk uphill.I imagine that the temple grounds are amazing, but for us the views were not that great. Almost the entire area was under construction. The saddest looking part was the mud puddles which had been reflecting pools, but are currently drained for bridge work.
