In order to mourn “Toyotomi Hideyoshi”, who was once supreme samurai ruler after “Oda Nobunaga”, this Japanese temple was built by Hideyoshi’s lawful wife “Kita-mandokoro” in 1606. One of the characteristics is “cha-shitsu” that is special room for tea ceremony. This temple is lighted up at night for several weeks in three seasons; cherry blossom in spring, hanging lanterns in summer, Koyo in autumn.?
