Kyoto - Kodaiji Temple

Kodaiji Temple, located near Kyoto's Gion district, exudes a serene atmosphere that feels steeped in history. The nighttime light-up events held here are particularly enchanting. The illuminated gardens, tranquil tea rooms, and mirror-like ponds combine to create a dreamlike beauty. In autumn, the combination of autumn foliage and lighting creates a breathtaking spectacle, while in spring, the cherry blossoms are equally stunning. Although it can get a bit crowded with tourists, visiting during quieter times allows you to enjoy a peaceful ambiance perfect for reflection.
