유시마 세이도

Surrounding the main building of this Confucian temple built near the end of the 17th century, all sorts of trees are planted like you’d find at the Temple of Confucius in Shandong Province, China. They include Chinese apricot and persimmon, whose branches look like calligraphy. It’s especially picturesque in autumn. You should slowly take in the whole complex. It’s an imitation of the original in China and a sacred place for Confucianism in Japan.
