About This Video

At the base of the Higashiyama mountains, near the very important zen temple of Nanzenji is Tenju-An temple. Tenju-An was erected in the early 17th century and is dedicated to the zen master who served Emperor Kameyama in his religious studies.

Tenju-An, like Nanzenji, is very popular for its stone garden and gorgeous pond with its many water lilies.
