★ ★ ★ ★ ★ ** Genko-an Temple 源光庵 This temple called Genko-an is located in Takagamine which is western part of Kita-ku. It was established in 1346 as a temple of Rinzai sect of Zen Buddhism. The highlights of the temple are its garden and the windows of two different shapes + ceiling boards, fusuma sliding doors of its main hall. Their Honzon 本尊 ( principal object of worship ) is a statue of Shaka-Nyorai.The garden made of a great ensemble of plants, flag stones and other structures create the elegant space which offers the sense of Japanese wabi-sabi. ( Wabi-sabi is a beauty of things imperfect, impermanent, and incomplete. It is a beauty of things modest and humble which is an element of Japanese culture ). The garden has long been admired as one of the best autumn views in Kyoto. On its backdrop is a borrowed landscape called Shakkei of Mt. Kitayama. This is another example of dried stone garden called Karesansui ( to see more examples Ryoanji - Daitokuji ) There are various types of momiji ( Japaese maples ) in the garden gradually turning colors to be enjoyed throughout the season. Those images are taken in mid-November of 2014, The impression of the garden changes with the change of the sunlight as well so it provides different atmosphere every moment from morning to sunset.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ One of my favorite temples. Peaceful and very beautiful. Best of all, I had no umbrella and it was raining. A kind lady who was working there gave me an umbrella to stay dry. It was a great experience.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Hidden gem in plain sight of some famous temples. Small but quiet and beautiful with an adorable moss garden, maple trees in autumn and cherry blossoms in spring. Another place where you can feel the spirit of the ancient capital without being distracted by too many visitors. The round windows with views of the garden are especially beautiful

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This is my go to place in Kyoto. There really isn't a bad time to come and see the temple, but the fall when the leaves starts to turn is by far the most stunning. During the busy seasons you may have to spend a little extra time waiting to get the best photo of the circular and square window. Take a chance to look up at the ceiling in the main building to see the blood soaked floorboards from Momoyama Castle. You can find a few footprints as you look around.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Beautiful small temple with significantly less tourists than the nearby Kinkakuji. Famous for its square and round windows side by side. Autumn leaves usually reach its peak in late November.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Despite what the brochure would have you believe, this temples name actually means 'in high mountain' because it is up a steep incline. Get as bus if you want to come here. Otherwise it is a fine medium sized temple.
