Kyoto Nison-in Temple in Autumn

Nison-in Temple in Arashiyama (northwest Kyoto) is a fantastic place to enjoy autumn leaves. The view from the top of the hill behind the temple is a secret spot, and especially nice. Most of the people stay at the long approach and at the main temple buildings to snap photos of the autumn leaves. But if you are a good walker, don’t stop there. Please walk up the steps through the cemetery area and climb up the hill. You’ll overlook a stunning view of the gorgeous colored mountains below.
