    Kyoto Kyoto-shi Kita-ku Murasakinodaitokujicho 82

    The temple itself is nothing special and certainly not photogenic. It has 5 rock gardens, none of which I found very special after seeing the ones at the back of the Daitokuji. Can be missed as far...

Its wooden tea houses, shuffling geisha, and spiritual sights have seen Kyoto hailed as the heart of traditional Japan, a world apart from ultramodern Tokyo. Despite being the Japanese capital for over a century, Kyoto escaped destruction during World War II, leaving behind a fascinating history which can be felt at every turn, from the fully gold-plated Kinkakuji Temple down to traditional customs such as geisha performances and tea ceremonies, which are still practiced to this day.
