Approaching the temple

 The walk on the uphill road was quite pleasant. The slope was not steep and the view was nice.

 I came upon a driveway with a sign on a post indicating that it was the temple, however, I did not see an entrance, only the parking lot.

Up the hill behind the temple were some temporary looking buildings that did not seem to be connected, in any direct way other than physically, with the temple. I was able to figure out that this was a Nichinrenshu temple, a branch of Buddhism that is quite different from the mainstream.
