Kyoto is charming and has over 80,000 shrines dedicated to various deities and historical events. Down the street there is a shrine for those suffering from foot and hip pain, so I may return before returning home.
A beautiful city with a history steeped in emperors, samurai, Buddhism etc etc.
Some of the sights we’ve seen so far:
At the Nishiki Market
In the Gion district (geisha district)
Perhaps one of the most amazing places I’ve ever seen was the Sanjusangen-do. It is the Hall of 1,001 Buddhas, all covered in gold leaf. No photos can be taken, so I bought postcards in the gift shop.
