kyoto

We spent the last few days of our holiday in Kyoto, and compared to the rest of the holiday Kyoto is a chaotic tourist trap city. We visited a few tourist spots but then decided that we'd had enough of the crowds, and spent the rest of the time wondering around the food markets and the city, shopping and just taking everything in.

One spot definitely worth visiting is the Sanjūsangen-dō temple with the thousand statues, it's beautiful and probably more pleasant to visit because you're not allowed to take photos...





Being an orienteer, and lovings forests, seeing the bamboo forest was something that I've always wanted to do. Pitty it is much smaller than I expected, and that one can not walk around inside the forest.







This is one of the best things we had on our trip, it's a crab stick with camembert in the middle.



And the black sesame flavor ice cream was my favorite. We also tried wasabe flavor and green tea flavor.
