A small monzeki beside the path: raked sand and thatch. Quiet on weekdays. Do not rush it and Eikan-do as a checklist.
Best time
Morning after the gates open. New Year and festivals are separate.
How to go
City bus or subway “銀閣寺道”. Tap ICOCA or PiTaPa. A city-bus day pass is bus only — not subway or JR.
Tips
- · A small monzeki beside the path: raked sand and thatch. Quiet on weekdays. Do not rush it and Eikan-do as a checklist.
- · One axis a day. Do not stack Higashiyama, Arashiyama, Fushimi, Kinkaku and Ginkaku.
