When I asked advice for good place to visit in the evening, the hotel people recommended me "Kodaiji ". So I went straight there around 20:00.


The garden was lit up.

First the parasol light object welcomes you in the rock garden.

The view at the pound was marvelous.

The pound is the mirror to the colored leaves. The reflection on the water surface is making the view magical and the way light highlights the color and makes shade creates romantic atomosphere

Bamboo forest was lit up too. Isn’t it awesome? Fairly or ghost would appear


Honestly the place was staffed with too many people and it caused a bit distance in my mind to be close to the sentiment and magical atmosphere the scenery was trying to create. But overall, visiting Kodaiji at night will be one of the unforgettable experiences you will have in Kyoto.


Enjoy the night walk in Kyoto!
