What you can expect

Explore Daigo-ji Temple, a hidden gem in Kyoto’s Yamashina area. Founded over 1,000 years ago, this Shingon Buddhist temple is home to Kyoto’s oldest wooden structure, a majestic five-story pagoda.

Admire the pagoda’s graceful and unyielding presence, which has survived wars, lightning, and tornadoes. Discover numerous important Buddhist statues that reflect centuries of faith.

Stroll through grand gardens and palace buildings designed by Toyotomi Hideyoshi, the legendary samurai who unified Japan. These spaces, once used for spectacular banquets, blend elegance, refinement, and the Japanese aesthetic of wabi-sabi into a unique expression of beauty.
