Message from Empty Japan

Kinkakuji Temple in Kyoto is a stunning golden beauty that captivates everyone. It's like the celebrity of temples! But believe me, despite its renown, you can't help but be awed by its glistening magnificence.

Arrive here as early as possible or in the evening, around 1 hour before it closes otherwise expect it to be really crowded.
