I came across the SAKURA EXPLOSION at HIGASHI HONGANJI temple in Kyoto.
If you don’t have enough time to go sightseeing for famous temples in Kyoto , visit HIGASHI-HONGANJI TEMPLE the nearest temple from Kyoto station 5 minutes walk!

There are MIEIDOU( the main hall) and AMIDADOU( Amida Buddha hall) 2 big halls , MIEIDOU has a huge prayer area and AMIDADOU has a beautiful golden color interior!
