Ukimido (Kaikouzan Mangetsu-ji) in Otsu City is a tourist spot loved by Matsuo Basho and many other writers. From the floating temple on the lake, you can enjoy beautiful scenery throughout the four seasons. In particular, the breathtaking view of Lake Biwa is a must-see. The temple is a wooden single-story building with a tiled roof and is designated as a registered tangible cultural property of the country. The well-maintained garden and the thousand Buddha statues are also one of the highlights. Ukimido, loved by people who have colored history, quietly watches over Lake Biwa in the same place even today.
