You can see the photo location by clicking on the image below.(instagram)
(Japanese)
At the end of June, the preparations for Gion Festival are progressing steadily in Kyoto.
The end of rainy season approached, temples, shrines and mountain greens are getting deeper and thicker.
So, from this time, I will introduce summer Kyoto with the title
"This is Kyoto colored in green 2018".
This time is ...
Giou-ji Temple
There is a unique green color that can only be seen in Giou-ji Temple.
This picture was taken around 4 pm on a sunny day in last year.
It depends on the weather and the performance of the camera, the color is completely different from the picture on the top.
And, this is a moss garden.
It's a spectacle that seems to be able to use in animation or movies.
The time zone of recommendation is morning or evening.
Furthermore, it's the most beautiful time after the rain stops.

You can see the photo location by clicking on the image below. (instagram)
(Japanese)
Following the last time, I introduce summer Kyoto with the keyword "green".
This time, I introduce Ginkaku-ji Temple and Honen-in Temple
First, is Ginkaku-ji Temple that is a world heritage.
It’s amazing that people over 200 years ago designed this modern garden.
The morning at Ginkaku-ji is very refreshing.
If you are confident in your legs, let's climb the cliff and enjoy this view!
Next, is Honen-in Temple which is about 5 minutes on foot from Ginkaku-ji.
It is a small temple that is always covered with tranquility.
When I go to this temple, it makes me feel like time has stopped.
Next week, we will start "Souvenir de Kyoto! Series”.
Stay tuned!

This is Kyoto colored in green... Temples in Ohara
You can see the photo location by clicking on the image below. (instagram)
(Japanese)
Following the last time, I introduce summer Kyoto with the keyword "green".
This time, I introduce Temples in Ohara.
First, it is Hosen-in Temple which is famous for a picture frame garden.
The power of a big pine "Goyo-Matsu" is amazing, but the bamboo forest next door is also beautiful.
Next, it's a nunnery temple "Jakko-in Temple" in about 20 minutes on foot from Ohara bus stop.
It's a small temple, but the stairs covered with beautiful green maples are a must-see.
Finally, it's Ohara's representative temple "Sanzen-in Temple".
When you are walking in the precincts, you will feel like taking a walk in the woods.
At lunch time, everyone is relaxing here ...
It takes about 1 hour by bus from Kyoto Station.
The strength of the sun is almost the same with the city area of Kyoto, but the refreshingness of the air is completely different.
When you get into the shade for a moment, you will feel comfortable coolness.

(Japanese)
Following the last time, I introduce summer Kyoto with the keyword "green".
This time, I introduce Around Gion that is a center of the Kyoto sightseeing.
First, it’s Gion Shirakawa where luxury restaurants and inns lined up.
Bright green highlights the beauty of tasteful townhouses and the flow of clean water.
Next, is Forever Museum of Contemporary Art, Gion-Kyoto facing Hanami-koji Street which is the main street of Gion.
The Works of contemporary artist Yayoi Kusama are on exhibition.
And, don't miss the beautiful garden and the powerful wooden buildings as well.
Finally, this is A row of willow trees along Shirakawa River in front of Chion-in Temple.
There are no railings or guardrails along the river, it's a very familiar waterfront.
The willows along the river shut out the field of your vision moderately, lets you imagine old cityscape.
Kyoto is still in the hot weather.
It may be like a Kyoto's style to spend a little time at a café facing waterside or green in the city centre.

This is Kyoto colored in green... Komyo-in Temple
You can see the photo location by clicking on the image below. (instagram)
(Japanese)
Following the last time, I introduce summer Kyoto with the keyword "green".
This time, I introduce Komyo-in Temple which is a Tatchu of Tofuku-ji Temple.
(Tatchu is sub-temple on the site of the main temple.)
In this dry landscape garden, dynamism is mixed with quietness.
The garden was designed by modern landscape architect Mirei Shigemori.
Especially, the garden seen from the room is so beautiful like a movie scene.
When I come here, I always take this cut...
On the philosophy of this temple, it's not good to attract attention. So, they have no homepage.
But the outstanding beauty is a must-see.

This is Kyoto colored in green... The bamboo forest in Arashiyama and Jojakko-ji Temple
You can see the photo location by clicking on the image below.(instagram)
(Japanese)
Following the last time, I introduce summer Kyoto with the keyword "green".
This time is the bamboo forest in Arashiyama and Jojakko-ji Temple.
First, it is bamboo forest in Arashiyama.
Since here is a representative place of Arashiyama sightseeing, it is always crowded with many tourists,
but if you go before 8 am, there are still few people, It's recommend!
Next is Jojakko-ji Temple.
This is the famous place of autumn leaves representing Kyoto together with Eikan-do Temple in Higashiyama area, but the season of green maple is also a must-see.
The lively moss illuminated by sunlight through branches of trees is also beautiful.
I'd recommend a visit in the morning if possible.
Because these places and Giou-ji Temple (introduced previously) are all located along the east facing slope.
In particular, the bamboo forest in the early morning is very cool!

Following the last time, I introduce summer Kyoto with the keyword "green".
It is one station from Kyoto Station by JR Nara Line to go to Tofuku-ji Temple.
Tofuku-ji Temple which is famous for beautiful autumn leaves, is also a big temple that has the great cathedrals.
The main hall seen from the Kaisan-do is very spectacular decorated in a green valley.
There are beautiful moss gardens in Hojo and Kaisan-do, and beautiful green color will feast your eyes.
It is also a must-see the dry landscape Japanese garden designed by a genius landscape architect Mirei Shigemori.
It is surprising that there is such a green valley in the quiet residential area which is also near from Kyoto station.
If you are looking for somewhat cool place in Kyoto city centre in midsummer, I'd recommend this place.

Following the last time, I introduce summer Kyoto with the keyword "green".
This time, I introduce Jingo-ji Temple and Kosan-ji Temple in Takao area that is in the north part of Kyoto.
The first is Jingo-ji Temple.
This temple is famous for its vivid autumn leaves, but summer greenery is also a pretty deep place.
It is also surprising that there is a big temple in the mountains with such a formality.
Next is Kosan-ji Temple located about 20 minutes on foot from Jingo-ji Temple.
This temple has a very beautiful approach which is wrapped in green.
You can also enjoy Kawayuka (a summer terrace on the riverside) in the nearby Kiyotaki River.
It is a perfect place to avoid the intense heat of summer Kyoto.
