If you're on your way to the Akino Fuku Art Museum, it's worth making a quick detour to take a look at the nearby Eirinji temple. It's not big, but it's fun to look around because of all the different statues you'll find there; there's a serene statue of the Buddhist goddess of mercy, and a handful of cute little ones, as well as some lovely carvings in the eaves of the temple buildings.
