The Jindai Botanical..ain 4,500 varieties
of trees, shrubs and..ubs, as you can see.
A nice little pond, filled with koi,
and a retiring nymph
On a rise above the pond, a gazebo
The first of many flowers in the gardens
"She loves me" could take a long time here
.
The hibiscus were in bloom when I visited
.

Next, a visit to the Jindai Temple complex
This sits above the ..tues in prev picture
Not sure who he is, but he likes lotus
One of many statues ..uddha in the complex
Pine trees and torto..symbols of long life
I'm not sure he'll fit through the stamens
Frogs are a symbol of good luck
.
We saw similar seals..shrines in Hiraizumi
Write a wish on the ..d it might come true
A very spare Shinto shrine
The Jindai-ji mascot monsters
