A journey to trace the traditional aesthetics of ancient Japan: Sagano Daikakuji Temple in Kyoto

Daikaku-ji Temple is a Buddhist temple located in the Sagano district of Kyoto, Japan. Its founding can be traced back to the early 8th century during the Nara period. The buildings and gardens in the temple are full of antique atmosphere, making people feel comfortable and peaceful. The most famous building in Daikaku-ji Temple is the Ho-jō, a teahouse built in the 17th century with an architectural style full of traditional Japanese aesthetics. The garden in front of the abbot is also a major feature, where people can enjoy the different beautiful scenery of the four seasons. In addition, there is a pond called Osawa Pond next to Daikaku-ji Temple, which is regarded as one of the representatives of Japanese gardens. Its simple and elegant style and antique buildings together create a very harmonious atmosphere. If you come to Daikaku-ji Temple, don't miss the Phoenix Hall and Myohoin Temple, which are also worth a visit. In addition, Daikaku-ji Temple often hosts tea ceremony performances and other cultural events, allowing you to experience Japan's traditional culture more deeply. #JapaneseAttractions #Kyoto #Japan #Sagano #Daikakuji #Hojō #HeronPond #JapaneseTraditionalAesthetics
