Kyoto’s Eikando Temple Autumn Illuminations from this past December

Taken on an iphone 15, no editing. As you can see i’m not a very good photographer, but the lighting here was so amazing that some of my photos look professional! I visited this temple during the day, and found out you can’t go to both the day and night events on the same day (idk how they control it) i’m glad I told them I would wait and come back at night. One of the most beautiful places I visited in Japan! It was crowded but not in a suffocating way like Kiyomizudera. Also the walk there is much nicer than the uphill Kiyomizu walk. I went first week of December. The illumination event only lasts a week or two. 100% recommend. Entry is 1000 yen. I’m so happy I chose Autumn season for my first Japan visit
