When you look at the gardens and pond of Ninna-ji Temple, you can feel a solemn beauty that is unique to temples, different from that of shrines.

#KyotoTrip #KyotoTourism #Ninnaji #Temples & Shrines #Temples Walking through the vast, lush grounds of Ninnaji, I felt the solemn, splendid, and refined Japanese beauty that is unique to temples. Instead of the flashy vermilion torii gates and gold decorations, the solid wooden pillars have turned brown over time, giving a sense of weight and depth. The building has also remained the same since it was first built, and when the cherry blossoms bloom in a little while, the sight of the cherry blossoms starting to bloom in layers, just like the building, is said to be gorgeous and beautiful. I wanted to come back when the cherry blossoms bloom. The main hall, the gardens and ponds of the Imperial Palace Gardens, and the grounds are all beautiful, and the aesthetic of minimalism, unique to Japan, is striking. The white sand garden and pond, the green trees reflected on the water, the blue sky and white clouds, all looked so beautiful in nature, like a painting. The main hall of Ninna-ji Temple, a World Heritage Site, is also called the Ninna-ji Palace, and is such a beautiful temple that you can't help but be captivated by its majestic and magnificent appearance.
