Kyoto experienced the first snowfall of the season on January 20, 2016.
If you are near Kyoto and snow falls, then there is one place you must visit - Kinkakuji. Also known as the Golden Pavilion, the already-beautiful shrine becomes even more beautiful when covered in snow.
So many people visited Kinkakuji on that day; many photos of it are already going around on SNS. And it's simply stunning!
Glimmering gold cover of the temple is further accentuated with the snow. It's a scene that many Japanese would love to see during their lifetime.
Although spending cold winter months can be a bit gruesome, some things are exclusive to winter. So might as well enjoy it.
