More shop than 'temple' Nyan Nyan-ji is filled with soft toys and merchandise. This toy was modeled on one of the previous 'cat abbots'.

   In spite of its name, Nyan Nyan-ji is not a temple, and there are some very mixed reviews. That said, it seems fairly unique within the city!

   One of the most frustrating things was the absence of the gallery's resident 'cat abbot' during my visit (apparently he was on a tour of Japan!?), surely the location's biggest draw.
