🍁 Autumn Serenity at Gotokuji Temple

#hellohalloween A peaceful afternoon at Gotokuji Temple, one of Tokyo’s most charming hidden gems. Known as the birthplace of the beckoning cat (maneki-neko), this temple becomes even more enchanting in autumn, when the maple leaves turn vivid shades of red and gold. The contrast between the vermilion foliage and the temple’s wooden structures creates a breathtaking scene — especially around the pagoda and stone pathways. As you wander through, the gentle sound of rustling leaves and the soft sunlight filtering through the trees make it easy to forget you’re in the city. 📍 Gotokuji, Setagaya, Tokyo #autumnintokyo #gotokuji #fallfoliage #tokyotemple #manekineko #japanvibes #setagaya #tokyoautumn #templewalk
