Located on the hill of eastern Kyoto, Kiyomizu-dera (pure water temple) is one of the most celebrated temples in Kyoto and one of the World Heritage Sites since 1994. It was founded in 780 on the site of the Otowa Waterfall in the wooded hills east of Kyoto, and derives its name from the fall's pure waters. The main hall has a large veranda, supported by tall pillars, that juts out over the hillside and offers impressive views of the city. Large verandas and main halls were constructed at many popular sites during the Edo period to accommodate large numbers of pilgrims
