✍️Caption
"Suirokaku" (Waterway Bridge) stands within the grounds of Nanzenji Temple in Higashiyama, Kyoto.
Built in the Meiji era as part of the Lake Biwa Canal, this brick aqueduct features a classical arch structure, making it a popular photogenic spot.
The unique landscape, combining the majestic atmosphere of Nanzenji Temple with Western-style brick architecture,
creates a slightly exotic feel within the authentic Kyoto atmosphere.
The contrast between the fresh greenery in spring and the autumn foliage is particularly beautiful,
drawing visitors to the area for photo shoots and strolls.
This hidden Kyoto attraction combines the value of a historical building with artistic beauty.
