The Beautiful Temples and Gardens of Kyoto (Updated 2025)

"As one of Kodai-ji's sub-temples, Entoku-in deserves a separate mention for its two Zen gardens and beautiful traditional paintings, and because it was where the wife of daimyo Toyotomi Hideyoshi spent her final years. I appreciated the peacefulness and artistry of the grounds. Entoku-in is open daily from 10am–5:30pm and admission is 500 JPY." - Matthew Kepnes
