The BEAUTIFUL grounds leading up to the Temple.
KIN in Japanese means GOLD.
Kinkaku-ji dates back to 1397.
In 1950 it was burned down by a novice monk.
BEAUTIFUL Kinkaku-ji was rebuilt in 1955.
Koi in the lake surrounding Kinkaku-ji.
I was impressed by the old thatched roofs
on the smaller buildings surrounding the temple.
Even the temple's BACK GATE was beautiful.
