If you're already in the area, Higashiyama Jisho-ji, or Ginkaku-ji (the Silver Pavilion), is one of those places in Kyoto you'll want to pop in and see.

It’s not as flashy as its golden sibling, but its still simplistic and beautiful.

The zen gardens, moss-covered paths and reflective ponds are perfectly maintained.

It’s the perfect spot to slow down and enjoy some quiet time in nature.

The entry fee is ¥500, and it’s open daily from 8:30 AM to 5 PM.

You’ll want to spend about an hour here soaking it all in!
