You can also find seasonal foods and the famous Kyoto specialties like Japanese pickles, sweets, sushi, and dry seafood. 

Kiyomizudera Temple

If you plan to visit a typical and popular temple in Japan, then Kiyomizudera of eastern Kyoto is ideal. The temple has its origin in 780 at the Otowa Waterfall in the woody hills. The name itself derives from the pure water of the waterfall. The entire temple’s architecture is amazing, with the entire structure resting on a wooden stage that is jutting out from the main hall. The temple is 13 meters above the adjacent hills. To enjoy most japan Kyoto tours, you should look at eh cherry blossoms and maple trees from the stage that looks like a sea of colors.
