A soothing ancient temple surrounded by autumn leaves. Enjoy a peaceful time at Jindaiji Temple
Upon entering Jindaiji Temple, the first thing that catches your eye is the moist air and the colorful trees of the season. Especially during the autumn foliage season, the temple grounds are bathed in red and orange, adding vibrant colors to the quiet, ancient temple, creating a beauty that will stop you in your tracks.
On the approach to the temple, swaying sunlight filtering through the trees onto the cobblestones creates a soothing atmosphere, with the scenery changing with every step. The autumn leaves reflected in the temple's pond, their colors shifting with every breeze, creating a painting-like effect.
After praying, I enjoyed the temple's specialty, Jindaiji soba. The simple, fragrant soba noodles gently warmed my slightly chilled body, providing a comforting taste. Eating the steaming soba while reminiscing about the autumn leaves was also a luxurious experience.
Despite its proximity to the city center, Jindaiji Temple, where nature and history flow leisurely, is a place that is especially appealing when visited during the autumn foliage season. A peaceful autumn moment that will lighten your spirit.
