Origami and Temples in Kyoto

For Fall 2017 voyagers, traditions were brought to life during the “Origami and Temples in Kyoto” field program. They got in touch with their spiritual side visiting multiple temples, including the iconic Golden Pavilion. Voyagers also participated in making origami and visited the Gian District.

“What’s really amazing to see is that combination of tradition and the 21st century that you don’t necessarily see in a lot of other countries,” said voyager Lawrence Horowitz, a junior at Colorado State University.
