After arriving at Kyoto station, we made a beeline for Higashi Honganji temple. We had seen this impressive looking temple while walking to and from our ryokan and we wanted to explore it. The grounds were indeed impressive. After this, we called it a day. I didn't have any desire to see more as we were somewhat templed-out after two days of visiting religious sites.
That evening, we went to Veg Out, a vegan restaurant located on the side of a river. I had an unusual green curry risotto fusion dish, which I loved.
