There is an adjacent Starbucks that has temple-facing seating inside, or you can just enjoy the view of the main hall through the shop windows.
View of the temple's gate from a side street.
On street level, the fairly compact temple grounds provide for a pleasant and quiet stroll in an urban setting.
The name “Rokkakudo” refers to the distinctive hexagonal shape of the temple’s main hall, best seen from above (from an adjacent tall building).
