Second day of travelling Japan, I was heading for Kyoto.

Kyoto downtown was somewhat quiet.
Mix of traditional and modern architecture was very harmonious.

Unlike Osaka, smoking is only allowed in designated smoking area.

The first spot to visit in Kyoto was Kenninji Temple.

This Zen Temple is the most interesting sight I went in Kyoto.
A must-visit spot, strongly recommended.

The temple located at the top of the hill is built with a cliff side that looks amazing.
Out of all the temples in Kyoto, this is the most famous one.
There were many people all around the world trying to see the temple with their own eyes.

Since I visited traditional sights in Kyoto, I decided to go to more secular sights this time.
Let's go to the Nishiki Market!
