Travelers Review for Kyoto
Culture capital of Japan!
I absolutely loved Kyoto- the beautiful shrines, the lovely manicured gardens and so many people in traditional dresses moving around briskly. If you are lucky, you can even spot a Geisha with full white makeup in the Gion District. Gion also has tons of restaurants and small shops selling souvenirs as well as, designer stuff.
Not to miss:
- Golden Pavilion- A beautiful house built by a Shogun a few hundred years back in a middle of a small pond surrounded by majestic hills and beautiful gardens. It is now a temple.
- Gion district- for shopping, Geisha sighting and restaurants.
- Kyoto Imperial Palace
- There are also tons of shrines in Kyoto and depending on your time, you can take your pick. Sanjusangendo, Kiyomizu temple, and Tenryuji temple are especially popular.
