Kotokuji Temple

This temple belongs to the Kenchou-ji branch of the Rinzai Zen school, and is said to have been founded in 1373.
In fall, when you walk through the massive gates, you will be met by a bright yellow carpet of leaves below the two large ginkgo trees.
The temple is home to many Cultural Properties, and the temple grounds themselves have designated as a historic landmark by the Tokyo government as.
The large trees like the kaya and tarajo, which are designated Tokyo Natural Monuments, are also definitely worth seeing.
