One of the shrines in Kiyomizu-dera. A stone wall and adjoining fountain set a peaceful, centering aura, while a mini red temple sits atop the structure, requesting reverence and tranquility. In the background are many trees, some of which are transitioning to red.

A landscape view of Kiyomizu-dera, a Buddhist temple in Kyoto, Japan.

The temple and pagoda are visible in the background, surrounded by trees, many of which are transitioning into vibrant autumn colors. One tree on the left, in particular, is nearing peak red foliage. The whole area is very centered toward nature, encouraging visitors and worshippers to find calmness within themselves while appreciating both the history and beauty of the place.

The 3-story pagoda is orange and gold, while the temple is a more natural brown and gold. sad constructed using wooden pillars over a mountainside. Both are stunning.
