A shrine in the middle of commercial area. Good to check out. A little small.
Beautiful view. The lore says that when emperor Kameyama passes the bridge on a ship during full moon night, the moon looks like it’s crossing the bridge. Hence the name (moon-crossing bridge)
Quite a climb to get there, passing the bamboo garden and such. Pretty small temple. Along the way passing residential area which is very good walk.
Cute little station that is full of food stalls and kimono pillars that lights up at night!
The best Wagyu A5 restaurant for the price. Go for the 150g Wagyu A5 Sirloin, definitely worth the price. Better be early, have your name on the line. Waiting time nearing lunchtime is about an hour.
Wonderful temple which used to be the emperor’s palace. Beautiful view with the autumn leaves falling. Entrance for the garden and temple is ¥800 per person. Come early to avoid crowd.
Interesting, value for money hotel. Breakfast for only ¥1,000 yen. Pretty comfortable for a few nights and located strategically near Kyoto station.
Small and beautiful. Next to the Arashiyama Romantic Line. Good point to go to the Tenryu-Ji temple and other tourist spots.
Interesting bustling building with 2 department stores, many restaurants and a lot of shops. Currently has a large Christmas tree set up for the festive.
Well arranged station. Definitely a very good interchange between Shinkansen, JR Line, and Kintetsu.
Very organized and well thought of airport. Not difficult to navigate, even if you do not speak Japanese. Service is pretty good, almost no waiting time for baggage claim.
It’s a coffee shop at the middle of nowhere (well, a parking spot). Cute little space, not much of sitting area tho.
Beautiful shrine lit up with a line of lanterns. Not as big as Kiyomizu-Dera temple, but has it’s charm. There are also hawkers at the entrance selling local delicacies!
It’s a market complex full of seafood produce, local Japanese snacks, souvenirs, soy donuts, and what not. Very very crowded. Go for the ones which the locals line up for!
Beautiful temple to be. Best to come early or you will have difficulty catching those wonderful photos. Only ¥400 per pax. Oh and get your hands on those mochies and matcha-chestnut ice creams!
There's an entrance to/from Mega Kuningan (right near the Chinese embassy), and another from Jl. Guru Mughni (entrance only). Convenient access!
You can see gardens according to the heritage in Singapore, such as Chinese garden, Indian garden, or Colonial garden.
Lovely coffee shop hiding at hardware shop! Coffee was fantastic, and they serve beer too. Had Japanese Curry Bowl and Ethiopian manual brew. Perfect lazy weekends!
Amazing luxurious shoppes displaying highest end products and services!
The exhibitions are wonderful, combining both art and technology in friendly approach - some even suitable for kids. Some exhibitions are free and others charge entry fee.
