Ichijoden Shinzenkoji is a sub-temple of the imperial family's family temple Sennyu-ji, also known as Mitera. Five buildings: the main hall, reception hall, entrance hall, front gate and middle gate are registered as Kyoto Prefectural Cultural Properties.  In 1243 of the Kamakura period Shin-Zenkoji was originally built west of Kyoto Imperial Palace. As its name suggests it is related to Zenkoji in Nagano. The front garden is flush with color: weeping cherry blossoms in spring and hydrangeas in early summer. Garan stones and stepping stones are arranged in the moss in the foreground around the pond garden as well as in front of the main hall’s moss garden.
