Beautiful Garyu-ro Hallway Enveloped In Fresh Verdure
Although Eikando could be very crowded with many tourists in the season of autumn leaves, you can see around calmly now in the fresh greens for there're fewer visitors. In the precinct of Eikando, you must see the beautifully curved Garyu-ro (Hallway Of Lying Dragon: named after its ceiling which is similar to a dragon's back).

The Whole Precinct Dyed In Red. Eikando, Famous For Its Autumn Colors
The Momiji maple tree dyed in red welcomes us at the entrance gate. There're 3000 maple trees, and the world commanding 360 degrees of autumn colors is so impressive. The reflections of maple leaves and Gokuraku Bridge on the pond is specially beautiful. When you visit here, you must see the light-up, too!
