Kinkakuji
|
Kinkakuji is also known as the Golden Pavillion. Built in 1397, it represents a key moment in the shift from the Heian garden for boating to the garden built to be observed from a few key positions - the verandas of houses were always top of that list.
Shown here is the famous carp stone under the waterfall.
