Eikando (Zenrinji Temple)

It is one of the most famous places in Kyoto, known as "Eikando of maples." In autumn, the temple holds an exhibition of temple treasures during the daytime, and at night, the temple is lit up with lights on a rotating basis. The precincts of the temple are illuminated by approximately 3,000 maple trees, including "Iwagaki-momiji". The view of the illuminated leaves reflected in Houshoike Pond is breathtaking. The illumination of the Amida Hall, where the main deity "Mikaeri Amida" is enshrined, is also a must-see.
