自転車で清水寺へKiyomizu Temple is among the top sites to see in Kyoto. It is a World Heritage site that was founded in 798 C.E.
The hugely popular Kiyomizu Temple (Kiyomizu-dera, in Japanese) is a dramatic complex whose main hall is built out onto pillars. The effect is that of a deck reaching out from the foot of the mountain.
Kiyomizu-dera is made up of several Buddhist temples and has spacious grounds. The temple is named for a waterfall on the grounds ("kiyoi mizu" means pure water).
It is also close to The Path of Nene and the small beautiful streets Sannenzaka and Ninnenzaka.
From the center of Kyoto, it will take you about 20 minutes to ride to Kiyomizu Temple.
