Jour 3
Arrival Tokyo
22 septembre 2023, Japon ⋅ 🌧 24 °C
Early morning arrival in Tokyo. Sunrise just before landing. Spent ages in immigration. Once we left our luggage at the hotel we then exchanged our JR vouchers for our actual rail tickets. Tokyo station is a massive underground complex. Some art installations at the station. Walked around Ginza with its high end stores. The food hall in Mitsushima had fruit and vegetables individually wrapped. Beef at nearly $250 for two pieces. Guess this wouldn’t be your normal supermarket. View of Tokyo Tower from our rooftop.En savoir plus

Jour 3
Exploring Tokyo 1
22 septembre 2023, Japon ⋅ ☁️ 28 °C
Today we explored Meiji Shrine, which is in the center of a beautiful park which was a welcome relief from the heat Here we were treated to a wedding which was spectacular. A workman was busy sweeping up leaves from the paths. A labor intensive task. Beautiful detail features. From here we joined the mad throng at Shibuya crossing. Able to get a viewing from Starbucks. Back to our hotel before the deluge started. Dinner at a small restaurant.En savoir plus

Jour 4
Further Adventures in Tokyo
23 septembre 2023, Japon ⋅ ☁️ 22 °C
Today set out to visit the Origami Workshop. Closed but the sign did say it was meant to open today. A disappointment but not to be thwarted we headed to Yanaka Ginza. This narrow shopping street was full of interesting and quirky stores. Hidden among them were temples in beautiful peaceful grounds. From here we went to the glass museum which was a very small artisan workshop. Here you could learn the craft of decorating glass. Some of the pieces were stunning. Early morning start tomorrow for Kanazawa.En savoir plus

Kanazawa
24 septembre 2023, Japon ⋅ ☀️ 26 °C
Boarded the bullet train for Kanazawa. All very efficient. Had a view of Mt. Fuji as we left Tokyo. Arrival in Kanazawa. Impressed by the massive train station. Kanazawa Castle near our hotel was once the fortress for the city. The gardens and grounds allowed you were not in the middle of a city. Visited the gold leaf museum. Here the gold leaf is produced by hand. The only place where produced in Japan.En savoir plus

Jour 6
Shirakawago
25 septembre 2023, Japon ⋅ ☁️ 25 °C
Today did a bus tour to Shirakawago, an historic village in the mountains about 2 hours out of Kanazawa. This world heritage site is made up of houses that are A frame about 3 stories and covered with thatched roofs. Known as gassho houses as they are like praying hands. In total visited three villages. It was a great side trip. Outside of some of the houses rice was being dried. At the last village I had a go at making washi paper.En savoir plus

Voyageur A side of Japan we don't usually see! How many pages were created?? I loved doing paper making with the kids!
25/09/2023RépondreTraduire
Voyageur A very different style of paper making. Water has a glutinous mix from the fibers of the mulberry bush. Only made one sheet larger than a placemat.

Jour 7
Last day Kanazawa
26 septembre 2023, Japon ⋅ ☁️ 26 °C
Today a more relaxing day. Walked through the Samurai district. The houses ranged from those of the lowly to a large house of a Samurai overlord. The gardens were stunning. Many of the houses in the narrow streets are private homes. There were artisan galleries along the way but not pushy.En savoir plus

Jour 8
Kyoto
27 septembre 2023, Japon ⋅ ☁️ 25 °C
Now In Kyoto. How about buying your Gucci or Prada at the train station. Massive underground shopping and food mall. Saw these Kokodama bonsai at one of the stores In Kyoto. Cecilia found a fabric store to get lost in. I found an art store. Bought paint sets for $12 back home $50. The art supplies were extensive.
Signs at the crossings for cyclists.
Walk through Pontocho Alley. Originally home to geishas from the Edo period. These tea houses today are small restaurants and artisan stores. Walking along the Main Street to this area you were confronted by high end shops and department stores. It is amazing that this area has survived.En savoir plus

Jour 9
Out and about Kyoto
28 septembre 2023, Japon ⋅ ☁️ 30 °C
Today the Philosopher’s Walk. A peaceful walk along a canal with many temples and shrines. Slow going as it was very hot. Apparently in spring it is spectacular as the walk is lined with cherry blossom trees.
Near the start is the twisted tunnel. Also an area of very wealthy people. Kyoto tower during the day and at night.En savoir plus
