Kyoto Day 2

We had a super late start today and eventually headed to Kyoto Castle. We stopped at a supermarket on the way and got some dango 🍡 snacks.

We spent a while walking around the castle, which wasn’t grand but is a very historic place, linked closely with the unification of Japan.

From there we caught the bus to Nishiki market and spent some time walking around trying different foods and looking at the shops. We found somewhere for ramen for lunch. We then continued walking and visited Gion again, looking at the different areas and shops.

In the evening we went to a local restaurant and had skewers and tofu salad.Read more
