< ni nak masuk ayat brochure+Wikipedia hehe..>
Kinkaku-Ji (the Golden Pavilion Temple) is the informal name of Rokuon-Ji. It was originally built in 1397 to serve as a retirement villa for Shogun Ashikaga Yoshimitsu, as part of his estate then known as Kitayama. The top 2 of it's 3 stories are covered with pure gold leaf. The present structure dates from 1955. Recently, the coating of Japanese lacquer was found a little decayed, and a new coating as well as gilding with gold-leaf, much thicker than the original coatings, was completed in 1987.



The Golden Pavilion is set in a magnificent Japanese strolling garden (kaiyū-shiki). The pond in front of it is called Kyōko-chi (Mirror Pond). There are many islands and stones on the pond. The garden however remains as it was in former days and can be enjoyed as it was hundreds of years ago.
