The extraordinary temples of Kyoko

April 06, 2025

We did the touristy thing today and did the The Perfect Kyoto Bus tour and saw 7 different temples or shrines. The beauty of one yemple was outshined by the next temple... and then enjoyed some time in Gion area and a lovely dinner at a traditional Japanese restaurant- the first one that wasn't completely booked! After 21,000 steps, I am happily exhausted...until tomorrow.....
