Reviews posted by visitors on Google Maps.
Es el templo de la mente iluminada. Compuesto por otros 46 templos, es un placer visitarlos. Era la antigua sede de la Villa imperial en Kioto, y el emperador ordenó construir en 1336 varios templos en ese lugar, comunicados por caminos de piedra.
Muy bonita la experiencia, incluso con la visita te permiten tomarte una foto, la cual es totalmente gratuita 😊. Para conocer un poco más de lo tradicional de Japón y las herramientas con las que construían las casas.
