It takes only 36 minutes from Nagoya to Kyoto by fastest bullet train, Nozomi. Though Kyoto is not so far from Nagoya, I visited the sights of Kyoto for the first time in 13 years. Kyoto station has changed very much. What a modern building it is! I met Portia and her husband Kevin at the hotel lobby they stayed. I had not decided where to go, but they had planned it already. I haven't read my guidebook at all, but Kevin have read a guideboo...

The last day in Kyoto was a rainy one. As far as the weather goes, we were pretty lucky because it hadn't rained up to this point despite the fact that it was the rainy season. So, four days into our trip, finally we had rain. We borrowed umbrellas at hotel, and we headed out in rain for Kiyomizu Temple. We got off a bus at the bottom of Gojo-zaka. Kiyomizu Temple is at the top of a hill, and there are several narrow streets leading up to it. These streets are lined with color...

Our main goal today was to see the Golden Pavilion and Nijo Castle. It was raining and we even bought another umbrella so we won't get too wet. The subway in Kyoto only goes north and south, and we had to transfer to a bus. But the instructions on getting to the Golden Pavilion was easy enough to follow, so we got there pretty easily. However, it was definitely raining as we walked toward the entrance. Even so, there were a lot of visitors!The Golden Pavilion we saw was rebuilt after a file i...
