Nanzen-ji Temple at 5:20a.m.~8:15a.m.
The huge gate at the entrance of Nanzenji is called San mon，and it was built in 1628 by Todo Takatora in memory of those who died in the civil War Oska Natsu-no-jin.
Nanzen-Ji also called Zuiryusan is one of the most well－known Rinzai Zen temples in Japan. Emperor Kameyama loved this beautiful place so much that in 1264 he built his detached palace here. Later he became a student of the Zen Master Busshin Daimin Kokushi, and he dedicated the palace as a Zen temple in 1291. A characteristic of the history of this temple is that its abbot was always chosen as the best Rinzai Zen Master in each period. As Nanzenji was above the Go-San SyStem, its influence on Japanese culture Was indeed great.
