Tenryu-ji is the most important Zen temple in the Arashiyama area and a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
It was founded in 1339 by the shogun Ashikaga Takauji in memory of Emperor Go-Daigo. The temple belongs to the Rinzai school of Zen Buddhism and has been an important center of Zen culture for nearly 700 years.
The highlight is its beautiful Japanese garden, designed by the famous garden master Musō Soseki. The garden is remarkable because it has remained largely unchanged since the 14th century. It also uses "borrowed scenery" (shakkei), incorporating the Arashiyama mountains into the landscape, making nature feel like part of the garden itself.
Take a moment to enjoy the peaceful atmosphere and imagine how people admired this same view almost 700 years ago.

Kinkaku-ji (The Golden Pavilion) is one of Kyoto's most famous landmarks and a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
It was originally built in 1397 as the retirement villa of Ashikaga Yoshimitsu, one of Japan's most powerful shoguns. After his death, it became a Zen temple.
The pavilion is famous for its upper two floors, which are covered with real gold leaf. On a calm day, the building is beautifully reflected in the pond, creating one of the most iconic and photographed views in Japan.
Although the original building was destroyed by fire in 1950, the current pavilion was faithfully rebuilt in 1955.
