Kinkaku-ji Temple in Kyoto, Japan: A perfect landscape of golden temple and pond.

#TravelGuide Located in northern Kyoto, Kinkaku-ji Temple was built in the 14th century during the Muromachi shogunate. Its exterior walls are covered in pure gold, gleaming golden in the sunlight. Its official name is Rokuon-ji, but most people call it Kinkaku-ji. The reflection of the golden building in the pond, Kyokyochi, is a signature Kyoto photo opportunity. On clear days, the mirror-like reflection makes it even more splendid. The grounds are lined with small waterfalls and garden paths, making for a leisurely stroll. The morning light is the most beautiful. A place where architectural beauty and nature perfectly harmonize, it is an iconic landmark that you can't miss on your Kyoto trip. #KyotoHotPlaces #OverseasTravel #JapanTravel #Kinkaku-ji #KyotoTravel #Kyoto #KyotoTravelItinerary #KyotoPlacesToVisit #Kinkaku-ji
