Kinkaku-ji, the golden pavilion, Kyoto
Kinkakuji or the Golden Pavilion is a Zen temple in northern Kyoto whose top two floors are completely covered in gold leaf. Formally known as Rokuonji, the temple was the retirement villa of the shogun Ashikaga Yoshimitsu, and according to his will it became a Zen temple of the Rinzai sect after his death in 1408.
Kinkakuji was the inspiration for the similarly named Ginkakuji (Silver Pavilion), built by Yoshimitsu's grandson, Ashikaga Yoshimasa, on the other side of the city a few decades later.
Kinkakuji is an impressive structure built overlooking a large pond, and is the only building left of Yoshimitsu's former retirement complex.
It has burned down numerous times throughout its history including twice during the Onin War, a civil war that destroyed much of Kyoto; and once again more recently in 1950 when it was set on fire by a fanatic monk. The present structure was rebuilt in 1955.

I love the clear background so that all you see is the writing, looks very elegant. Little on the pricey side, but worth it. They stick great to my plastic containers, hopefully it withstands in the shower. Printing was flawless

These stickers are absolutely lovely. They're quite durable (I've got one on a water bottle) and the colours really pop, which is why I went with the Warblers set. I love that these are the perfect blend of cuteness and realism. Colours are sharp, material is thick and durable.
