Yesterday I wanted to return to the sightseeing activity, for that reason I tried to maximise my coverture of Kansai Region, visiting Kyoto the ancient Imperial capital of Japan.
The trip to Kyoto takes about 90 minutes; for that reason, I decided only to visit the first four spots I could visit.
I started my visit at Kinkaku-ji or Temple of the Golden Pavilion.
Outside the temple, I saw a map that pointed to two nearby locations to visit by walk, that lead me to Ryōan-Ji a Zen temple well preserved with lovely trails.
The third place was the best, in my opinion, Ninna-Ji temple a UNESCO World Heritage Site, The entry allows you to walk through ancient halls and alleys.
After all that walk, I was exhausted. So, I decided to find a random place to take a lunch. But, after a long walk, I found the Hōkongō-in Temple, located just in from of a train station, so I decided to visit the temple and return to Osaka.
