Kyoto’s tallest pagoda only looks like this 44 nights a year 🍁
I lived in Japan for a year, and Toji at night still stopped me in my tracks. It’s the autumn spot I tell everyone about, so I’ve saved you the wandering around. Swipe for the 6 spots I’d go straight to, plus how to get each shot on your phone 📸
📍 Toji Temple, Kyoto
📅 31 Oct – 13 Dec 2026
🕕 6:00–9:30pm (last entry 9pm)
🎟 ¥1,000 adults
🚶 15 min walk from Kyoto Station
My tip: go right at 6pm or after 8:30pm. In between, it’s shoulder to shoulder at the pond 😅
Toji or Kiyomizu-dera at night? Which would you pick? 👇 (Kiyomizu post coming soon 👀)
Save this for your Kyoto autumn trip, and send it to whoever you’re going with.
