Chorakuji
京都市東山区円山町626
A serene temple with a history spanning several centuries, featuring a garden renowned for its cherry blossoms and autumn foliage.
What visitors say
Located in a quiet, elevated spot at the eastern end of Maruyama Park, the temple offers an open environment with panoramic views of the city from the hilltop. The contrast between the garden designed by Soami and the autumn foliage is beautiful, providing a calm and refined atmosphere during the leaf-peeping season. Other highlights include the newly renovated shoin (study) and important cultural properties displayed in the storage facility.
