Philosopher's Walk

Philosopher's Walk

The Nihongo|Philosopher's Walk|哲学の道|Tetsugaku no Michi follows a cherry-tree-lined canal in Kyoto, between Ginkaku-ji and Nyakuoji-jinja. The route is so-named because a Kyoto University philosophy professor, Nishida Kitaro, used it for daily meditation. It passes several temples and shrines such as Miroku-in, Otoyo-jinja, and Koun-ji.
