Japan Kiyomizu Kannon-dō Temple
The Kiyomizu Kannon-dō Temple, framed by blooming cherry blossoms, provides a stunning glimpse into Tokyo's historic beauty. Located in Ueno Park, this temple is an oasis of calm and a perfect spot for enjoying the sakura season.
Photography Tips
Use the vibrant cherry blossoms to frame the temple, creating depth in your shot. A wide aperture (e.g., f/2.8–f/4) will highlight the blossoms in the foreground while keeping the temple in focus. Visit during early morning or late afternoon for softer light and fewer crowds.
Travel Information
Parking near Ueno Park is limited and can fill up quickly during cherry blossom season. Public transport is highly recommended; Ueno Station on the JR Yamanote Line is just a short walk away.
