Rengejo-in Review

Rengejo-in is an especially lovely temple where both the head priest and his mother speak English. For the basic price you get two meals and a simple tatami room with a TV. Pay a bit extra and you get a larger room with garden views both front and back. There is a meditation session held before dinner and a prayer service at 6 am>. From the cable-car terminus, take the bus and get off at the Ishinguchi stop. Rengejo-in is right next-door.
