During the first two days of the itinerary, it was difficult to see the red maple trees full of trees. Occasionally, there was one tree that we had been photographed continuously. As the trip came to the Kinkakuji Temple, I realized that the red leaves lined the Kinkakuji Temple. There was an indescribable opposite.Also let me work hard at this station, wanting to leave every memory.
Kinkaku-ji Temple is also called Shikaenji, and Shikaen-ji Temple was built in 1397, and its name is derived from the legal name of Ashikaga Yoshimitsu, the third shogun of the Muromachi period. The main building in the temple, the relic hall, is decorated with gold leaf. Also known as "Golden Pavilion Temple".The Kinkakuji Temple stands in the middle of the lake in a square shape.It can be used as a building that demonstrates the Ashikaga family's dominance of the samurai regime during the Shogunate period.
The first floor-"Hosui-in Temple", in the style of the dormitory, the style of the aristocratic architecture of the Heian period
The second floor-"Chaoyin Cave", built by the samurai family, in the style of samurai architecture
The third floor-the Tang Dynasty style "Jiuding", which belongs to the Zen Buddhist temple building.
And coming to the carp stone, it is derived from the Chinese allusion-the carp jumped to the dragon gate. Parents of ordinary families hope that their children will be like the carp that jumped to the dragon gate.
As the sky darkened, we had to walk back quickly, I think we were the last to get in the car again.
