III.12:
After arriving in Kyoto, Xia Qiao set the hotel they were staying at as the center point, and the order of their visit was planned according to the distance from the hotel to the nearest one, so today their destination was Kinkakuji Temple, which was the second farthest away.
Kinkaku-ji Temple, whose real name is Rokuen-ji Temple. Among them, the three-story pavilion building (Relic Hall) covered with gold leaf inside and outside is also called Kinkaku, so the temple as a whole including the Relic Hall is also called Kinkaku-ji.
The first floor of the "two-story three-storey" pavilion is made of wood, and the second and third floors are covered with gold leaf. This golden pavilion was used to successfully seal the relics of Shakyamuni Buddha, so it was called "Golden Pavilion Temple". It seems that there is also a story related to Kinkakuji Temple in "Clever Ikyu".
Since Kinkakuji Temple is located in Kita Ward, Kyoto City, Xia Qiao and the others experienced a day trip by bus early in the morning and took the bus to Kinkakuji Temple first.
As soon as I arrived at Kinkakuji, I saw many tourists from different countries come to check in, Xia Qiao they also took the ticket, to be honest, the ticket of Kinkakuji is really distinctive, like a symbol, in fact, it is a royal guard, there are Chinese characters written with a brush, the meaning is beautiful, it is worth cherishing.
Grandma also praised the design of this ticket is really creative, and it should be kept for good storage.
The gate of Kinkakuji Temple is still very simple and low-key, after entering, you can see that it is really very delicately maintained, individual maple leaves have turned blood red, most of them are half red and half orange, and there are many evergreen trees in the temple, which makes Kinkakuji Temple more emotional.
After a while, they walked to the mirror lake pool, and the reflection of Kinkakuji stood up in the water, and the Kinkakuji Temple in the water was matched with the white clouds in the sky, and the beauty was intoxicating, just like the Japanese drama "Precarious Hotel" in which an old grandmother had to go to live in a dusk suite every five years, because it was the hotel where she and her husband were newly married and honeymooned, although they could only save enough money to live in this suite once every five years, but they still insisted on living once every five years, even if the grandmother was left alone in the end, she still insisted on coming here, This room allows you to see the light reflected in the pool refracting back to the room, creating a different view. And this was her and her husband's agreement.
Looking at such a beautiful picture, Xia Qiao wanted to call Lin Yi to take a picture, because there were more people in the group, Lin Yi would walk at the end to see if there was anyone left, Xia Qiao led the way in front, and the others walked in the middle, and before Xia Qiao turned his head, he just shouted Lin Yi.
As soon as Xia Qiao turned his head, he saw that Lin Yi was already filming, and Xia Qiao showed a relieved smile.
"What's wrong, Xia Qiao?" Lin Yi took a good photo and looked up at Xia Qiao.
"It's nothing, I originally thought that the reflection in the water was very beautiful, and I wanted you to take a few photos, but I didn't expect to turn my head and look, you are already taking pictures, and you really have a good idea. Hey! Xia Qiao laughed innocently.
Lin Yi was also amused by her: "Well, I see." ”
Then they went closer. The first floor is the "Hosui-in" that continues the wool of the Fujiwara period (in fact, it is the style of the dormitory), the second floor is the "Shion-dong" of the Kamakura period (in fact, it is the samurai architectural style), the third floor is the style of the Tang Dynasty of China (in fact, it is the Zen Buddhist hall building), and the top of the Kinkakuji Temple has a pagoda-like structure, and a golden phoenix as a decoration, the Kinkaku-ji Temple is dazzling and beautiful under the sun.
Due to the endless stream of tourists who came to observe, they finally found a treasure to take a photo together, and they were shocked by a child who strayed into the camera.
Why was he shocked, mainly because this child was in the toddler stage, and he was not good at walking at the beginning, and he finally took a step, and when he saw that he was about to fall, Xia Qiao's family was ready to go over to help him, so everyone's expressions and movements became panicked and anxious. And the child's mother also pounced.
Due to the sudden farce, everyone was caught off guard, and Bao's mother was also deeply sorry for her baby's unintentional actions, but Xia Qiao's family were very cute people, and fortunately they held the little cutie, so they continued to take pictures.
In this way, Lin Yi went to find a few more places, took some pictures, and they came out of Kinkakuji Temple.
Coming out of Kinkakuji, there are some particularly famous small shops, including an ice cream parlor, which is a place that Xia Qiao especially wants to check in.
Because, everywhere the ice cream has gold leaf on it.
Fortunately, Xia Qiao has a good sense of direction and it is easy to find an ice cream shop. Because my grandmother was older, everyone chose the ice cream they wanted to try, except for my grandmother, who refused the ice cream.
In fact, this ice cream is similar to the cone in KFC, but she sprinkled a layer of gold leaf on the outside, so it became a little taller, Xia Qiao chose a matcha-flavored ice cream, and it looked like a mold if she didn't eat it, and it still tasted good.
Xia Qiao looked at the ice cream in his hand and smiled like a child getting his favorite candy, Lin Yi seized the opportunity, raised the camera, clicked, and took a picture.
"You actually filmed me secretly, Lin Yi." Xia Qiao found Lin Yi, who was secretly filming, overturned online and became a "tigress".
Lin Yi said indifferently: "My task is to take pictures, you~this~?~but~love~ I can't take pictures yet." ”
"Ahhh Xia Qiao has changed from a "tigress" online overturn to a "little sheep".
Lin Yi felt that Xia Qiao really thought it was ugly, and said very seriously: "No, it's really beautiful, you don't have to worry about it." ”
The two of them began to frolic because of this little thing.
Qiao Zijie himself sighed: "I feel like I am a 10,000-watt light bulb, shining alone here, and my heart is still cold." ”
Then silently ate the ice cream in his hand.
Xia's father and Xia's mother looked at the two of them like this, and couldn't help but sigh in their hearts: "Sure enough, people who fall in love have become like children." ”
Xia's father asked Xia's mother very humorously: "Is this the same when we are in love?" Wife. ”
"At that time, you wouldn't think about it yourself."
"Hehe, we had a better relationship at that time." Dad Xia is still very self-aware, and fortunately braked in time to avoid unnecessary tragedies.
In this way, the family walked around and headed for the next location.
