While Kyoto’s big temples fill with crowds, I found peace at Shisendo — a quiet garden built centuries ago for reflection. The sound of rustling leaves and the view of crimson maples through tatami rooms make you forget the city exists. 🍂 If you need a break from the rush, this is where Kyoto whispers instead of shouts. #Shisendo #KyotoHiddenGem #AutumnVibes
