Pontocho Alley, located along the west bank of the Kamogawa River between Sanjo and Shijo, is considered by many to be the most beautiful street in the city.

KINKAKU-JI TEMPLE
KINKAKU-JI TEMPLE
Historical landmark
20 mins
This Zen Buddhist temple, reflected in its adjoining “mirror pond” with its small islands of rock and pine, is perhaps the most widely recognized image of Kyoto. Kinkaku-ji Temple, the Temple of the Golden Pavilion, is a breathtaking sight, and a must-see for visitors to Kyoto. The golden pavilion itself is a reliquary hall, destroyed by arson in 1950 and rebuilt in 1955. The grounds depict the Western Paradise of the Buddha Amida, and illustrate the harmony between heaven and earth; the island in the middle of the pond represents Japan.

The views over the city are simply breathtaking. Beneath the main building is the Otowa Waterfall, whose water grants wishes, and in an adjacent building is a pair of “love stones” -- if you walk between them with your eyes closed, you will find true love (it is said). Kiyomizu-dera is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
