Eikando Temple: Kyoto’s Autumn Wonderland

#japantrip #thingstodo #travel #temple #culture #religion #kyoto #japan #solotrip Nestled in the heart of Kyoto, Eikando Temple is a dreamlike retreat, especially in autumn when its maple trees burst into fiery shades of red and gold. Walking through the temple’s tranquil gardens and wooden corridors, you’ll feel a deep sense of peace, enhanced by the gentle reflection of the leaves in the temple’s pond. The temple’s famous Amida Buddha statue, with its rare sideways gaze, adds a unique spiritual touch. Whether you visit during the brilliant fall foliage or the peaceful off-season, Eikando’s beauty and serene atmosphere make it a must-see in Kyoto.
