Kinkaku which is a reliquary hall has three-layer structure, Hosuiin and gold leaf are stuck from the 2nd layer in the building of the classic-aristocratic-mansion-style style [ the 1st layer ], and the 3rd layer is called Kukkyotyo in Tyoondo of samurai structure, and the Buddhist altar room of the Zen Buddhism style.

Moreover, around, the garden made into the typical stroll garden of the Muromachi period spreads out so that reliquary hall Kinkaku may be surrounded. the inside in kyoko pond -- a reed -- the stone of size besides Harashima, Tsurushima, and Kameshima is combined, and the figure of Kinkaku in which it is reflected in kyoko pond is also beautiful.

The Kinkakuji Temple at the time of autumnal leaves is comparatively vacant when I carry out, and it was able to enjoy beautiful autumnal leaves slowly.

Although I feel that the Kinkakuji Temple seldom hears the famous place of autumnal leaves, this seems to be related also to autumnal leaves not being seen from the kyoko pond front used as the time-tested product of the Kinkakuji Temple, either.

However, the spot of beautiful autumnal leaves may be everywhere hidden by the surrounding garden, and autumnal-leaves time may also be good to separate a few from very crowded Sagano and Arashiyama, and to take a walk this.

Although the best time to see of autumnal leaves serves as the middle of November - the end of the month, it may shift by a year.
