    Hiking

    The aqueduct was designed by Sakuro Tanabe. He took the landscape of the temple grounds into account during construction, thus perfectly integrating the aqueduct. Today, it is a popular destination for tourists and influencers.

    Within the Nanzen-ji area, there is an aqueduct that stretches from Lake Biwa to Kyoto. It was built in 1888 and is a good 93m long.
