Eikando Temple, also known as Zenrinji Temple, is a must-visit spot in Kyoto famous for its stunning autumn colors and evening illuminations. Originally founded in the Heian Period, the temple has a rich history and is affiliated with the Jodo sect of Buddhism. Visitors can explore various buildings connected by wooden corridors, including the Shakado, Miedo, and Amidado halls. The highlight is the picturesque Tahoto Pagoda nestled on the hillside, offering panoramic views of Kyoto. Don't miss the Hojo Pond surrounded by vibrant maple trees during the fall season!
