A little time. A closer look.
Jindaiji and its surrounding soba shops offer a compact temple-area visit in Chofu. Keep botanical-garden admission separate, and treat a meal as an optional purchase with the individual shop's own opening and dietary information.
Something to notice
Notice the relation between the temple approach, trees and shop fronts. Let one quiet detail set the pace of the walk.
A little consideration
Respect worshippers and photography restrictions. Confirm menus and dietary needs directly with the shop; do not assume all businesses share one timetable.
