**Shiga One-Day Essence Tour: Art, Water Towns, Shrines, and Lake Views** Start from the Miho Museum (I.M. Pei's "Peach Blossom Spring"), traverse tunnels to encounter an artistic wonderland of light and shadow. In the afternoon, visit the Old Rinkoin Temple, where you can enjoy tea and observe the changing seasons in a garden that borrows scenery from Mount Hiei. On days when the Old Rinkoin Temple is closed, you will go to Hiyoshi Taisha Shrine on Mount Hiei, a thousand-year-old shrine where you can encounter spiritual monkey statues, pray, and find peace of mind; at dusk, head straight to Shirahige Shrine on Lake Biwa, where the torii gate on the lake and the sunset are framed together, making every shot a masterpiece!
