Day 10- Kyoto


Today we went to Fushimi Inari Shrine, which is famous for the countless torii gates it has. It was a long walk and we didn't even cover the whole hill.


We also visited the Kiyomizudera Temple("Pure Water Temple"), which is one of the most celebrated temples of Japan.
We got to see 2 Maiko on their way to the shrine too.

Part of the fun of visiting Kiyomizudera is the shops on the way to the temple, that are along the steep and busy lanes.

This shop sells very nice fabrics!

We went to Gion after that and managed to catch glimpses of Maiko and Geisha going about their evening appointments. Pity it was raining and we could not stay longer. :S



For dinner we decided to try Okonomiyaki! Hehehe... looks not bad ah? It was rather yummy too!

Once again, a look at today's loot! :P hehehhehe....
