Chion-in Temple

This massive temple may not have the star quality of Kinkaku-ji, Fushimi Inari or Kiyomizu-dera, but it abounds with charm. Head down at nightfall to see it in all its illuminated glory, with lit-up pathways flanked by pine trees, and pagodas giving off an ethereal glow. If you’re into handicrafts markets, make sure to visit on the 15th of the month.

    The main gate is incredible.

    The main gate is incredible. As soon as you see it, the sheer height of it will make you say "wow!". The main building was closed for renovation, but it was nice to walk around the grounds and admire the buildings. The main gate and steps really made it for me, though.
