Kodaiji Temple in Kyoto is a stunning Zen Buddhist temple built in memory of Toyotomi Hideyoshi by his wife, Nene. The temple features lavish buildings surrounded by beautiful gardens, including a rock garden and a tsukiyama-style garden with a pond and maple trees that turn fiery red in autumn. Visitors can explore the main hall, mausoleum, and tea houses while enjoying special illumination shows in spring and autumn. Don't miss Nene's Path for a scenic stroll back to the bustling streets of Higashiyama District!
