Kiyomizu-dera Temple

#fallcolors Kiyomizu-dera Temple sits atop the Higashiyama hills, offering a stunning panoramic view from its famous wooden deck. In autumn, the maple trees surrounding the temple turn bright red and orange, stretching out like a sea of colors below the deck. The view is magical and creates a beautiful contrast to the temple’s wooden structure. A Combination of Nature and Historic Architecture Kiyomizu-dera’s charming traditional architecture comes alive in autumn. The nailless wooden structure of the main deck, which juts out over a valley of maple trees, creates an unrivaled view. It’s a perfect blend of human and natural art, as if the autumn leaves are a natural frame for the temple. Address: 1 Chome-294 Kiyomizu, Higashiyama Ward, Kyoto, 605-0862, Japan
