Autumn is rolling in a little late this year in Kyoto, and even though it has already rolled through Sapporo, the leaves are only beginning to turn in the old capital. Many of the temples popular for autumn color viewing also open at night for a whole different experience. The main building at Chion-in was closed for extensive renovation, but the grounds were open for night viewing. They even had the stairs to the interior of the main gate open so the inner chamber could be viewed.
More pictures after the break.
Beautiful night photos !……thanks !
