Kyōto itself has missed out a bit so far, so we had a look at a few places today. The Tōfuku-ji temple and its accompanying garden, for instance.
In the distance on a mountainside, we also spotted a large Kannon statue. It belongs to the Ryōzen Kannon, a somewhat neglected site that’s mainly meant to commemorate the fallen soldiers of the Second World War.
At the weekend and with such lovely weather, you can find women wearing kimonos pretty much everywhere in the Gion district. And if you’re really lucky, you might even spot a real Geiko. That’s what they call a Geisha in Kyōto.
