先說結論：如果你帶著國小學童，並且以為這座寺廟和「忍者」有關，千萬不要來。 導覽大約 30 分鐘，門票不便宜，體驗卻非常糟糕。
我去年造訪妙立寺，事前還特地打電話預約，因為要帶 11 歲和 9 歲的小孩，對方再三強調一定要帶護照證明他們是國小學童。當天參觀時，導覽人員一開始就嚴格要求大人必須全程牽著小孩的手，並禁止使用手機翻譯。雖然他們有提供多國語言的導覽手冊，但我在過程中只是把手冊拿給孩子看，手一鬆開，就立刻被導覽人員用嚴厲的口氣警告，感覺就像又回到新訓中心受訓一樣。
後來我只好一路牽著孩子，退到隊伍最後面，避免再被訓斥。但這樣一來我們什麼也看不到，只能翻著手冊上的圖片，等到導覽結束後再自己向孩子解釋剛剛的內容。整體來說，完全不值得。
Let me start with the conclusion: If you are bringing elementary school children and think this temple has something to do with “ninjas,” don’t go. The tour lasts about 30 minutes, the admission fee is not cheap, and the overall experience was terrible.
I visited Myoryuji last year. Before going, I even called to make a reservation. Since I was bringing my 11- and 9-year-old kids, the staff repeatedly emphasized that I must bring their passports to prove they were elementary school students.
On the day of the visit, the guide strictly required adults to hold their children’s hands at all times and prohibited the use of mobile translators. Although they provided multilingual guidebooks, when I tried to hand one to my kids, I briefly let go of their hands and was immediately scolded harshly by the guide. It honestly felt like being back in military boot camp.
After that, I stayed at the back of the group holding my children’s hands the entire time, just to avoid being shouted at again. As a result, we couldn’t see anything during the tour and had to rely on the pictures in the booklet. Only after the tour ended could I explain to my kids what we had supposedly just seen. Overall, it was a complete waste of time and money.
