Japan - Kyoto 1 Day Tour

It’s been awhile since I carry on with my blogging of my Japan trip. But the memory is still fresh when I look back at the photos I taken. As the saying goes, pictures are worth a thousand words. Enough of Osaka for now and I hop over to a day trip I had in Kyoto. Kyoto like animations I watch evolving samurai’s era is a place of worship. In Kyoto itself according to the tour guild there are over 1000 temple or 2000. (The figure slip me, but its many many to be able to finish in 1 shot.)

The temple I visit on Kyoto often have big court yard. Clean and neat, spacious with a sense of tranquillity. The name of temple if I make a direct translation would be “temple of the thirty three.”





The rows of white paper at the bottom left are actually ‘predictions’ which is bad in luck and thus devotees tied the paper to the rope for better bless where as if the ‘prediction’ paper you got its good. You keep it!

After the first temple visit, we stop by a restaurant with a nice garden for lunch. Shoes has to be taken off though.











The food display is definately exclusive in my view but its a tad too fine lunching for me that I felt hungry after finishing the set. After the lunch with some time left to spare. we went about to explore the restaurant and found a big garden back yard.






Thats about all for one post~
