Kinkakuji Temple... more commonly known as the Golden Pavilion. Katie and I spent the weekend in Kyoto. It was one of my goals to check out as many of the cities around Japan during the Fall this year... since it would be my LAST! Kyoto was definitely number 1 on my list, and it definitely held up to its high expectations! Many other visitors had the same idea as we did, so it was extremely crowded. The first day we went to the Golden Pavilion, a huge tour of Japanese high school girls were all running around and giggling, so it was hard to actually enjoy it. I decided to go a second time on Sunday before I headed back home. It was definitely worth going again! The reflection pond in front of the pavilion was amazingly still the first day, but due to the storm that was coming, kind of choppy the second time. |
