At present ,it serves as a training center for Chisan Shingon monks,and additionally as a place for members of the public to hold memorial services for thier ancestors,pray for wishies to answered,and study Buddhism. Its garden,one of the best-known gardens in Kyoto,was inspired by the area around Mt.Lushan in China and offers a distinct beauty according to the season.The wall paintings of maple and cherry trees here,painted by Tohaku Hasegawa and his son,are another important feature of the temple and some of the most prominent examples of thier kind inJapan.The screen in the hall,Four season"is a depiction of the four season of Japan created using only black ink, and was dedicated to the temple in 2008 by the artist Toshio Tabuchi. – Chishakuin
