Overview

Massive glass and wood stage with the best view of the city.

Sitting atop the Higashiyama mountains, this temple features a glass-floored Zen garden and a wooden stage four times larger than the one at Kiyomizu-dera. It offers an unobstructed 270-degree view of Kyoto, Osaka, and the surrounding mountains. It is particularly stunning during the night illuminations in spring and autumn.
