\Update Lotus Blooming Status/
The "Nara Nishinokyo Lotus Road" event is currently being held at four temples: Saidai-ji Temple, Kikou-ji Temple, Toshodaiji Temple, and Yakushi-ji Temple, coinciding with the peak blooming season of the lotus flowers. We are providing updates on the blooming status of the lotus flowers along with comments from each temple. Why not take the opportunity to visit these lotus temples with a common admission ticket?
【Kikou-ji Temple (as of July 4th)】
"The lotus flowers at Kikou-ji are gradually blooming beautifully. The bud of the Chūson-ji lotus in front of the entrance to the sutra copying hall is about to bloom."
【Saidai-ji Temple (as of July 4th)】
"The lotus garden at Saidai-ji is blooming more and more."
