Our Recomendation

Open hours:

Jishoji Temple, also known as Ginkakuji Temple, belongs to the same sect as Kinkakuji Temple. It has architecture and gardens representative of the Higashiyama culture that flourished in the late Muromachi period (1336-1573) and is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Unlike the gilded Golden Pavilion, the Silver Pavilion has no silver leaf. The Philosopher’s Path on the approach to Ginkakuji Temple is one of the most popular walking paths in Kyoto, and has been selected as one of the 100 best paths in Japan. It is crowded with tourists during the cherry blossom and autumn leaf colour seasons.
