To celebrate the changing of seasons, Kiyomizu-dera opens up in the evening three times a year (autumn, spring, and summer) and holds an illumination event to brighten up the foliage.
What happens?
The pagoda, temple, and Jojuin Garden will be lit up.
Illuminations will turn on from 6 p.m. The temple will be open until 9:30 p.m. but note that last entrance will be at 9 p.m.
