Carried on our day tour of beautiful Kyoto. The trip wasn’t exactly pre-planned, cuz we ended up missing many of the iconic (and kinda must visit places like Kinkakuji – 金閣寺, Ginkakuji – 銀閣寺 , Ryoanji – 竜/龍 安寺) as they were really off the center of Kyoto.
Started the day by first going to Nanzenji (南禅寺), since it was just directly behind our ryokan (makes no sense to miss it). It was pretty cold early in the morning, but there were already a few old folks there doing their morning exercises, and students making their way to school. We went and made some prayers there and walked around, enjoying the morning fresh air.
