Autumn and Kimono in Kiyamizudera Temple, Kyoto

Kiyomizudera (literally "Pure Water Temple") is one of UNESCO world heritage sites in Japan. Located in Kyoto, the temple is best known for its wooden stage, 13 meters above the hillside. I was lucky to visit this temple in autumn as it affords picturesque views of the numerous cherry and maple trees below the temple. The mix of colors surrounding the temple is exceptionally breathtaking. It was a remarkable memory of visiting a celebrated temple in Japan as I also had an opportunity to dress up with a kimono and local make-up and hairstyle. There are many salons nearby the temple offering this opportunity. Taking photos with kimonos at the beautiful Kiyomizudera during fall made my short vacation in Japan worth remembering. #fallingforfall #japan #kyoto #temple
