GINKAKU-JI TEMPLE

Ginkaku-ji the "Temple of the Silver Pavilion" was definitely my favorite temple of them all we visited in Kyoto. It was built in the style of the famous Golden Pavilion (a temple fully covered in gold), but was never completed with a matching cover in silver, so the name is just kind of a nickname for the temple. I think the Japanese garden around the temple was absolutely the best part. It was so green and so beautiful, that I just wanted to stay there for the whole day and admire the nature! But we had few other temples ahead of us to see that day, so we continued our way...

    In my city, there is also a "Japanese garden" but this one seems to be more "real" !
