Spending autumn in Japan's cultural capital is one of the most beautiful memories I have of the Kansai region. Kiyomizu-dera is one of the must-see temples in Kyoto and for me personally autumn is the best time to visit. The hills and gardens on the temple grounds are so full of different colors that you don't know where to look first. Definitely try to visit during the week, as the weekends in autumn attract large crowds.

I don't love revisiting the same attractions over and over again, especially since theres so many other things to experience; but I really want to visit Kyomizu in every single season. How can I put it? Even when visiting during the hot summer, it was an excellent experience, I really want to visit in Autumn!
