Kyomizu Temple is my favorite temple among all the attractions I have visited in Kyoto and Japan, the temple itself is huge and under renovation, unique in its beautiful surroundings and the temple is located on a towering hilltop. Climb the ramp. Beautiful views of the city (I went at dusk, it was amazing) and lots of natural scenery around. The streets leading to the temple are also very beautiful, there are shops and food to eat, worth a visit. Despite the tourists everywhere, I really liked the atmosphere of the place.
