Although there are many temples, shrine and places to see in Kyoto,

people don’t have time to visit all of places.

My recommendation is that having a theme of which one wants to see and absorb.For example,visiting places which came out in the tale of Genji.

On Feb 2008, I and my german friend went to Kyoto but we only have a day.

Therefore we dicided to visit some places and “Three biggest gate in Kyoto.

” Those are located in Nanzen temple, Ninna temple(a world heritage) and Chion-in. Nanzen temple is located in east side of Kyoto,and between Ginkaku temple and Chion-in.

We went Nanzen temple from Ginkaku temple on foot. It took 30 min.

( It was far but  Tetsugaku no michi( the load of Philosphy leading to Nanzen temple) was beautiful especially in Spring season.   Nanzen temple was buit in 1291.

The big gate called ” San mon” was built in 1628 by Takatora Todo. This temple is above the Go-san(Five mountain) and the status of this temple in Rin-zai Zen is the highest.

If you go there, I want you to see a waterway in Nazen temple area. This waterway constructed between Lake Biwa and Kyoto city almost 200 years ago.

Cherry blossom in Nanzen temple is one of the most famous and beautiful in Kyoto. Coming Spring must be great but there are too many people …..

We didn’t have time to go up “San mon” but poeple can go. It cost ¥500.The web of Nanzen temple is here(http://nanzenji.com/english/index.html ).
