Unfortunately we could not spend a lot of time in Kyoto, besides everything closes so damn early there. The City Of A Thousand Shrines does not disappoint, but make sure you show up early in the morning, not late afternoon. Most of our time was spent at beautiful Fushimi Inari-Taisha as you'll see from the pictures. Make sure you bring a good pair of shoes if you plan on visiting this shrine. Incidentally, late afternoon is a perfect time to visit as the sun sets and blends in with the thousands of torii gates.

Kyoto Station (京都駅) Much to its credit, Kyoto is not a very modern city. Apparently many citizen were against such a futuristic station. While it is very convenient, it doesn't fit it with the skyline. |

This fountain was moving to the sound of classical music. Very impressive in person, especially due to the lighting and "choreography". |
