Eigenji is the head temple of its own branch of Rinzai Zen, founded in 1361 in a bend of the Aichi river where the valley narrows, and it is the best known autumn temple in Shiga. The approach crosses a bridge over the gorge and climbs a flight of stone steps under maples that close overhead, and the peak in mid-November draws a volume of people the small valley road struggles with.

Outside those three weeks it is a working Zen monastery in a quiet river valley with almost nobody in it. The precinct holds a set of stone rakan figures on the slope above, carved in the eighteenth century and scattered among the trees rather than arranged, which are more interesting than the temple buildings and which most autumn visitors walk straight past.

คู่มือจากคนใน

**Mid-November is peak and the road cannot take it.** The valley is narrow and there is one way in. Weekday mornings, or a bus from Yokaichi rather than a car. **Find the rakan figures.** Stone arhats from the eighteenth century, set among the trees on the slope above the main precinct rather than lined up. Almost every autumn visitor misses them. **Admission rises in November.** ¥500 for most of the year and ¥600 during the colour, with longer hours to match. **Any other season, it is empty.** A working Rinzai head temple in a river gorge. May and early June, with fresh maple and the river up, is the quiet alternative to November. **Eigenji dam is further up the valley.** The road continues to a reservoir and on over the pass into Mie, which is a good drive with no traffic outside the autumn weeks.
