🏯Five-story pagoda floating in the darkness. A quiet moment at Toji Temple at night

Kyoto after the daytime bustle has died down.

When you visit Toji Temple at night, the five-story pagoda is bathed in a quiet glow, creating an atmosphere where time seems to stand still.

The illuminated pagoda is reflected in the pond, and in the silence of neither wind nor sound, only a faint light sways.

The ancient capital's nighttime beauty lies in its quietness, not its splendor—that's the moment I felt it.

*The autumn/winter illuminations usually begin around November, but please check the official website for details!

The five-story pagoda, which has stood for over a thousand years, exudes an even more striking presence in the darkness of the night. ✨
