All Reviews of DAIGOJI Temple

This time I visited Daigoji Temple in Kyoto, originally just planning to walk around and have a look, but it was more relaxing than I expected. Unlike Kiyomizudera Temple and Fushimi Inari Shrine, it isn't always packed with people. There weren't many visitors on a weekday, and the whole area was very quiet, so I could take my time exploring and taking photos.

I wasn't in any particular rush, so I slowed down and strolled around, listening to the wind rustling through the leaves. It felt very soothing. Although I didn't visit during the peak cherry blossom season, the lack of crowds made it easier to appreciate the temple's tranquility and historic simplicity.

Compared to Kiyomizu-dera, there are fewer people here and it's much more peaceful. Perfect for a slow stroll alone or with close friends.

Sitting under the cherry blossoms, enjoying a special bento, you can really feel the spirit of spring in Kyoto.

Many of the buildings in the temple are designated as National Treasures and World Heritage Sites. The area you can visit is pretty big, so you'll need an hour or two to see everything.

The whole temple area is really big. Besides the temple itself, there are also beautiful gardens to check out.

I visited when there were no cherry blossoms or autumn leaves, so I could really relax and enjoy the scenery without the crowds.
