This temple all over is covered gold. 360° we can see beautiful sight. And we also can see beautiful Japanese garden. If you come here, you will be able to feel Japanese tradition.

金閣寺は京都を代表する観光スポットです。歴史的には室町時代を代表する北山文化を作った足利義満の邸宅として作られました。 Originally built in the 14th century as a retirement villa for Shogun Ashikaga Yoshimitsu and now a Zen Buddhist temple, the magnificent Golden Pavilion (Kinkaku-ji) is one of Kyoto's most picturesque attractions.
