Kyoto's Kiyomizu-dera Temple THE EVENING SPECIAL VISIT autumn 2018

Written by GOOD LUCK TRIP

Every year, Kiyomizu-dera Temple offers special night visits in autumn. The temple seems to float above a myriad of trees changing color. While enjoying the spectacular scenery that can only be glimpsed at night, why not visit the statue of Kannon, the Goddess of Mercy?

A blue beam of light emitted from Kiyomizu Temple expresses Kannon's compassion. This fantastic light beautifully shines over the old streets of the onetime capital of Japan.
