The Historic Monuments of Ancient Kyoto is an incredible UNESCO World Heritage Site in Japan. Located in Kyoto, the cultural and spiritual heart of Japan, this site covers a number of shrines, temples and pavilions across the ancient city. For our visit, we focused our attention on some of the most important spots: the amazing Kinkaku-ji, Temple of the Golden Pavilion, one of the most famous temples in Japan. Ryoan-ji, Temple of the Dragon at Peace, with its remarkable and tranquil rock garden. And of course, Tenryu-ji, the famous temple with its beautiful pond. Enjoy!
