The Kinkaku-ji, a Zen Buddhist temple commonly called the Golden Pavilion, stands serenely against Kyoto’s lush landscape. The top two floors are covered in brilliant gold leaf that glowed warmly in the afternoon sun on my visit. In spite of the crowds, it's a place of transcendent beauty, and it's easy to see why it's one of Japan's most iconic and historic sites.
