The Daikaku-ji Temple

#japanitinerary Amazing, best temple I visited on kyoto, it is very well maintained the gardens and the buildings. The staff is friendly and there are places where you can't get your fortune and buy charms. Cool shot opportunities. My best experience of the temples I visited in arashiyama. It's quite big and not particularly popular, so you get a good amount of space to yourself. Has everything: Buddhist temple grounds, pond, bamboo grove, rock garden. It's also actively used and i saw both monks and group prayers. Sunset in the garden was great.
