Reikan-ji is a small temple just above the Philosophy Path and only open for brief periods in the year,but very well-known for its beauty of camellias and called "The Temple of Camellias"..So when opening many people visit this temple's garden dedicated to camellias

The temple was founded ,formaly named in 1654 by Imperial princess 多利宮Tarinomiya( 浄法身院宮宗澄尼Johossinin-no-miya-syochuni1639-1678)who was a daughter of the Emperor Gomizuo 御水尾天皇,and her childfood name was Tani-no-miya谷宮 so the the temple has been also called Tani-no-Gosho.(Gosho means Inperial Palace )
The temple still retain the atmosphere and elegant appearance in those days,especially the father Emperor Gomizuo loved camellias ,so this temple has been filled with various types of camellias.
