Kinkaku-ji was built as a private residence for some famous lord. The house and surrounding grounds are beautiful; you can really imagine escaping there for a few days to get away from the hustle and bustle of Japanese court life. In his will, this lord bequeathed the site to his favorite Buddhist sect who transformed it into a temple.
