It's not too late! 8 illuminated autumn foliage in Kyoto

The autumn foliage season in Kyoto has settled down, but there are still many places where the leaves are lit up!
In this issue, we will introduce a selection of temples and spots recommended by our local editorial office that are still doing light-ups from our autumn foliage specials.

6. [Hogonin Temple] Autumn Night Special Viewing / Arashiyama<br>

One of the Tenryu-ji temple's pagoda temples, founded in 1461.
Normally closed to the public, the garden is open for special viewing from early October each year, and is illuminated during the fall foliage season. Shishikaro-no-niwa," a circular landscape garden with Arashiyama in the background, is a famous garden that was recorded in "Miyako Rinsen Meisho Zue," a guide to famous places in Kyoto during the Edo period (1603-1868).

7. [Myokenji Temple] Autumn Special Viewing / Nishijin<br>

At night, the garden facing the Kyakuden, the "Shikai Shoin no Niwa" and the autumn leaves are lit up, creating a fantastic scene different from that of the daytime.
