It''s not hard to organize a sensible array of shrines and temples in Kyoto, especially since many are UNESCO Heritage sites. Map and info are available at Kyoto station. Ginkaku-ji is accessible by city bus

We were pretty shocked that this shrine is small. You get a view of the surroundings if you pay the entrance fee of 500yen to enter. The gardens are very well maintaned and really quite pretty!Worth a visit only if you have alot of spare time.

Compared with Jinge Temple, the viewing experience of Yinge Temple is better! Because the scenery is rich and quiet! Yinge Temple has both a dry landscape garden and a return to the pool garden courtyard; especially the shape of the dry landscape, which is shocking.

Yinge Temple is one of the most beautiful temples, and it is also the top temple in Kyoto. The area of the dead landscape is large enough, so it shows many different ways of care. The building is not big and there are many areas to explore.

Although there is an entrance fee of 500 yen, it is a pleasant place to see. The size is a little small, and it is impressive that the sand and lake are completely organized with the perfectionism unique to Japan. You can go up the stairs and overlook the panoramic view from above, but it's not very difficult stairs, so it's recommended to see them.

Take 203 from the Golden Pavilion Temple for about 20 minutes to the Yin Pavilion Temple. After getting off the bus, you have to walk for a quarter of an hour through the philosophy road. It happens that the cherry blossom season is particularly beautiful, but unfortunately it is a bit gray on a cloudy day. A road at the entrance of Yinge Temple is very lively, there are snack bars and local products, the tickets are 500 yuan, and it is very low-key after entering. A small dark building does not have the bright eyes of Jinge Temple. But it's still coming to sightseeing.

I went there many times, but it is a very calm space. The view from above is also the best.
