We're off to Hiroshima tomorrow via Himeji. I Doubt I will have internet access for a few days so might not be any pictures for a little while.
Started very early today with a walk through the Kyoto Imperial Palace Gardens and then got the bus to one of Japan's most famous zen gardens at Ryoanji (below).
We then walked up the hill to Kinkakuji Temple which has a stunning golden pavillion (below) and gardens.
After some Unagi (eel) for lunch over looking the main river in Kyoto, we headed to the far South East to the Fushimi-Inari Shrine which has a Japanese fox (below) as it's symbol and the hill behind it is coverd with 10's of thousands of orange Torii gates (below) set in miles of steep trails.
Finished the evening off with some tempora for dinner and a hot Japanese bath for my sore legs.
