  2. Over the years many kinds of lotuses have been collected from all over the world, potted specimens covering every inch of spare ground.

    Because of this the temple is better known as 'Hasu-no-dera' (蓮の寺 the 'Lotus Temple') and historically 'Hana-no-dera' (花の寺 the 'Flower Temple').

    In Kyōto 'kanrensetsu' (観蓮節), 'lotus flower viewing', coincides with the culmination of the Gion Matsuri, when the gods of Yasaka-jinja arrive at their temporary holiday abode in the city.
