Nighttime Guide to Kodai-ji Temple: Kyoto’s Hidden Night Sakura Gem

#cherryblossom25

Kodai-ji, a Zen temple built by Nene (wife of Toyotomi Hideyoshi) in his memory, is one of Kyoto’s understated yet profound night attractions. Compared to the crowds at Kiyomizu-dera, this spot offers serenity—and during sakura season, its evening illuminations are breathtakingly beautiful!

🌸 Why Visit?*
✔ Secret night sakura with fewer tourists
✔ Atmospheric illuminations reflecting on temple ponds
✔ Historic charm+ poetic ambiance
