Kiyomizu-dera Temple




The Kiyomizu Temple was one of the few places we actually saw crowds of people. This 1,000 year old Temple is high on a mountain top. Many people make the pilgrimage to this place to pray and to drink from the sacred waters. There were Taiko drum players performing when we were there. There is a beautiful view of Kyoto from the top of the Temple and the narrow winding streets leading to the Temple are lined with shops and restaurants.
