Higashi Honganji Betsuin

An amazing Jodo Shinsho Buddhist temple, where people were cleaning up after a sunday market.

I came to talk with a food truck owner there, who is originally from Italy and used to go skiing in Austria :)
Amazing how things work out ;)

Shimochya Park

A nice little japanese garden, sadly you can still hear the noise of the street but a nice little garden.

On my way back I strolled around like I always tend to do because I often stumble across interesting things.

And what did I find:
Naka Ward Historical Walk - Betsuin Course!
A short 2 kilometer walk through the ward with a lot of shrines, temples and so on.

Challenge accepted!
Just had to start on sight 9 and make my way to 1 :)
