chrisbg — Arashiyama
Night settles differently at Hogon-in Temple. The garden glows in quiet layers, with soft light tracing the old moss, the pond, and the autumn branches that feel almost suspended in the air. Visiting after sunset lets you see Arashiyama in a calmer rhythm, one where each step reveals another small reflection or shadow you might miss in the daytime. If you plan to go, arrive early since the evening line moves slowly, and keep a bit of silence inside the garden so you can feel its stillness fully. A beautiful stop if you’re exploring Kyoto during the foliage season. 📍 Hogon-in Temple (宝厳院), Arashiyama, Kyoto 36 Sagatenryuji Susukinobabacho, Ukyo Ward, Kyoto #Kyoto #Arashiyama #hogonin
