【Kyoto】Early Morning at Kiyomizu-dera Temple.

I arrived at the main gate, Nio-mon, at 07:05 in the morning. There were already some tourists, but it was still less crowded, allowing me to take pictures of Kiyomizu-dera without too many people in them. School trip students and group tourists started arriving in droves around 8 o'clock. If you want to walk around smoothly, take photos, or worship at your leisure, it is recommended to arrive between the opening time at 6 am and 7:30 am.
