MY Favourite Places to Visit

清水寺 (Kiyomizu-dera)

April 2008

 

Kiyomizu-dera (清水寺), officially Otowa-san Kiyomizu-dera(音羽山清水寺?) is an independent Buddhist temple in eastern Kyoto. The temple is part of the Historic Monuments of Ancient Kyoto (Kyoto, Uji and Otsu Cities) UNESCO World Heritage site.  To me, 清水寺 is just a normal Japanese shrine, but what amazes me is the beautiful scenery of maple leaves.  Must see !!!
