Travel Tips

 I would like to introduce the beautiful Autumn color leaves lightened after sunset in Kyoto Entokuin Temple where I visited recently.

 Entokuin temple is the sub-temple of Kodaiji temple and located in the east of Kyoto named Higashiyama near Kodaiin temple.
After the death of Nene who was the wife of Toyotomi Hideyoshi, her nephew set this temple as her family temple.
This is the beginning of Entokuin temple.

Karamon (Chinese style gate) on the entrance of Entokuin temple and the surrounding landscape:

After walking through Karamon gate, you can find Hojyo hall from where you can appreciate the south side garden named “Nantei”.
This garden was arranged recently in the end of 20th century and white sands combined with various flowers for each season are beautiful under lighted up in the night.

Room inside Hojyo:
In this room, you can appreciate paintings written on sliding doors such as pines, bamboos, plums, snow, moon and flowers.
The background color of the paintings are gold and have us felt the gorgeous atmosphere.

Hokutei (north side garden) located on surroundings of the study room was built in Azuchi-Momoyama period (1573-1600).
The building has been kept as it was when created and registered as National scenic spot.
There are lots of rocks arranged in this garden with combined by white sands, moss and maple trees with autumn color leaves in the backside.
