image ID#15514 Have always wanted to visit Kyoto and finally made a point of going. These pics were taken in April/May-ish where the cherry blossoms are supposed to be in bloom but the blooming came late. I think this was the only tree that was blooming. image ID#15515 These pictures where taken a while ago but never got the chance to sort through all the photos. Always end up taking too many. As with the photos I took in Hong Kong, I cant remember where these were taken so if you are knowledgeable with these places, feel free to let us know ^^; image ID#15516 Got off at Kyoto station feeling disappointed as down town looked just like any other town. I was expecting to see an old traditional Kyoto from the very beginning. After 20 min a bus ride, we arrive in an area where the buildings and roads were more of the traditional form. Like the strategically placed finger-on-lens? image ID#15517 Kyoto is all about walking around so bring a good pair of walking shoes. image ID#15518 The best time of year to visit Kyoto is during the cherry blossom season (roughly April?) or in Autumn. The cherry blossoms/leaves turning red really add to the nostalgic atmosphere. image ID#15519 Make a wish and write on one of these thingies. image ID#15520 Cant remember what this building is called but I see it getting blown up in Nihon Chinbotsu. That film was not bad actually. Loved the ending bit. image ID#15521 Time for some Tofu lunch. image ID#15522 Something special about this water which is the reason why people are collecting it in bottles. image ID#15523 Love the old buildings. Another strategically placed finger-on-lens ^^; image ID#15524 Dont forget to pick up some traditional Kyoto souvenirs for your relatives. image ID#15525 Lots of slopes in Kyoto to walk up. image ID#15526 You will most probably spend most of your time walking, eating and looking. image ID#15527 image ID#15528 image ID#15529 image ID#15530 Cant remember what this place is called but its near Kyoto station. There are a few hotels around this area too. image ID#15531 Some of the parks are open until late with the trees lit up. I can only imagine what this place would look like in full bloom. image ID#15532 Some traditional cosplay? image ID#15533 Some building made out of gold. image ID#15534 image ID#15535 image ID#15536 We did spend sometime downtown before coming back to Tokyo. This pic was taken in a shopping arcade selling pickles and other wot not. image ID#15537 The tofu in Kyoto tastes fantastic. While Tofu is popular as a dish (fried, boiled), Tofu milk is not as popular which I found odd.
