Christmas in Kyoto










For Christmas I went to Kyoto with a lot of people. We stayed at this really great hostel (which I didn't get photos of, I am sorry). It was nice to get away for a while. On my trip I went to Kyoto Tower (first photo), the Golden Temple (next two photos), the Silver Temple (which has a nice zen garden!)(next three photos), the place that has all the orange Ottori gates (sorry I don't remember the name)(next photo). I was shocked to find out the writing on them is corporations. They are all sponsored! It is supposed to be a holy place! Oh well. Finally, I dressed up like a Geisha, actually it was a Maico (an apprentice Geisha)(last photo). It was fun!
