The dazzling Golden Pavilion in Kyoto 🇯🇵 #japan #travel #kyoto

Kinkaku-ji, or the Golden Pavilion, is a stunning Zen Buddhist temple in Kyoto, Japan. Originally built in the 14th century, the top two floors are covered entirely in gold leaf. On a clear day the temple reflects beautifully in the surrounding pond, not so much in the pouring rain 😁 Surrounded not only by the large pond, but by beautiful gardens, this temple should definitely be added to your Kyoto itinerary.
