The old streets and alleys of Kyoto have a very Japanese atmosphere. Let’s stop at places that catch our eye and take photos together. This is possible precisely because it’s a private tour.
Hongan-ji is the head temple of the Jodo Shinshu Hongwanji-ha sect and is also referred to as "Nishi Hongan-ji" (Western Hongan-ji). It is famous for its historical buildings, including the registered World Heritage Site grounds, the National Treasures such as the Go-eidō (Hall of Amida) and Amida-dō, the Shoin, and the Hiyun-kaku. The wooden floors feature various intricate patterns, making the site full of attractions beyond just the buildings themselves.
