“One of the most beautiful places I’ve visited in Japan, together with Ginkakuji and Himeji Castle. Majestic and calming scenery. Not as known to tourists as sites in Kyoto city proper, and therefore not as crowded.”（銀閣寺、姫路城と並び、今まで訪ねた最も素敵な観光スポットの一つ、荘厳ながら落ち着きさがある景色を見られるところです。京都の観光スポットのように知られていないため、人混みが少ないです）
“We must have visited 30 temples during our 3 weeks, but this was our favourite.” （寺社30カ所ほど訪ねた3週間の日本旅の中に、我われが一番好きなところです ）
“Stunning and breathtaking reflection of the temple”（庭園の池に写るお寺の反射が魅力的）。
“Terrific small museum that encapsulates Japan and region. Spent an hour and a half in one room looking at incense containers. Who would have thought it would be so mesmerising.”（小さいのに日本やほかの地域の伝統を網羅している素晴らしい博物館です。 1つの展示室に1時間半かかって、香合のみを見ていました。そこまで惹かれるとは思わなかったです！）
“The museum was interesting but my favourite part was the gardens. We came at the best time of year with all the autumn leaves on full resplendent display. The setting was very tranquil and you easily forgot you were in the middle of a busy bustling city.” （博物館自体も面白かったですが、私は庭の方が気に入りました。ちょうど紅葉満開の秋に来たので、庭が色彩豊かだった。自分が忙しい大都市の中にいるのが忘れてしまうぐらい、穏やかな雰囲気だった ）
“It took some doing to get to this area, but it was worth the trip. The temple is up in the mountains in a much less populated area, and the location contributed to the lack of crowds which was a real plus. We took a lot of photos with no other human being in them!”（京都からちょっと遠いし、山の中にあるので観光客も当然少ない！人が入っていない、自然の写真をいっぱい撮れた！）
“Loved the garden and the little statues at this temple. Worth a visit when in Kyoto.” （庭と小石像は大好きです。京都に行くなら行ってみる価値があります）
