Hōsenji Temple
A temple on high ground overlooking the Matsumoto Plain adorned with hydrangeas
Hōsenji Temple, affectionately known as the "Hydrangea Temple," stands on a hilltop overlooking the Matsumoto Plain. In early summer, the hydrangeas blooming throughout its grounds harmonize with the expansive, open views, creating a soothing landscape. Its charm lies in offering a different atmosphere from the hydrangeas at Kōchōji Temple, which spread out at the foot of the mountain, allowing visitors to enjoy a more expansive vista.During the blooming season, visitors can leisurely stroll through the quiet grounds, savoring the vibrant colors of the flowers. Visiting both here and the nearby Kōchō-ji Temple allows you to fully appreciate the diverse expressions of hydrangeas.
