Kyoto - Bishamon-do temple

This hidden gem is famous for its vibrant red and golden maple leaves, which blanket the temple grounds, creating a mesmerizing scene that feels like a painting.
Best Time to Visit

• Early Morning or Late Afternoon – For fewer crowds and the best lighting for photography.
How to Get There
• By Train: Take the JR Tokaido Line or Kyoto Subway Tozai Line to Yamashina Station, then walk about 15 minutes.
• By Bus: Kyoto City Bus to Bishamondo-mae, then a short walk to the temple.
