天龍寺は年に二回、春と秋に訪問しています。 紅葉がとても奇麗な庭園と、別料金でお寺内に上がれる入場券を購入して解放された座敷で座りながら庭園を眺めるのが好きです。 庭園だけの入場券だと座れる場所がほぼ無い(空いている所)ので、座敷で休みながら見る方が良いですね。勿論、座敷だけでなく外廊下にも腰を下ろせるスペースが沢山あるので、中に入りましょう。 庭園を散策すると上の方に多少ベンチはありますが、まあ座れないと思った方が良いです。 普段はこのアカウントはラーメンとうどんを中心にクチコミを書いていますが、今回はたくさん撮った動画から4点ほどグーグルマップに最適化した編集で投稿することにしました。他に上げた動画はスマホから直接上げています。

今回は庭園のみのチケットで入園しましたが、チケットを受け取るとすぐに綺麗な枯山水を見ることが出来ました。 3月中旬だったので庭園のあちこちに梅の花が咲いていて綺麗でした✨ 出口のすぐ左に竹林があるので、天龍寺を散策してからそのまま竹林に寄ることをおすすめします 🥰

嵐山に訪れたなら、必ず来た方が良いところです。まず庭園ですが、広大な敷地に四季折々の植物が植えられており、どの季節も楽しむ事が出来るでしょう。今回は、紅葉の時期に来ました。美しい紅葉の庭を見ることが出来ました。本堂から見る庭園は格別です。美しい池に色鮮やかな楓や銀杏、奥に見える山など最高の景色でした。 本堂もかなり大きく、襖絵や欄間などの装飾など見ごたえがあります。観光客はかなり多いですが、建物の敷地や庭園もかなり大きいので、気にせずゆっくり回れました。 最後に法堂、こちらは写真撮影禁止なので写真のアップ出来ませんが、こちらに雲龍図があります。この雲龍図ですが、どこから見ても目が合うとのことでしたが、なんと顔の向きも変わるのです。 まるでトリックアートのような不思議な体験が出来ます。雲竜図を見ながら、堂内を歩いていくと、今まで北を向いてた龍の顔が、南や西やら方角は確かではありませんが、顔が動くのです。不思議です。是非是非立ち寄りご住職の面白い話をお聞きください。
