Visit Nanzen-ji aqueduct

The red-brick aqueduct running through Nanzen-ji temple grounds is an unexpected Meiji-era backdrop for Instagram.

Free to walk around. The aqueduct still carries water from Lake Biwa to Kyoto.

Nearby Eikan-do Zenrin-ji has spectacular fall colors (mid-November). Buy tickets at the gate; allow 1 hour.
