Day 3 in Kurashiki – City Escape to Hiroshima and Miyajima -広島市 宮島




The day before today, whilst visiting the shrine outside Kurashiki in Okayama prefecture, we were joking about doing something different since we had one spare day and we could leave Kurashiki day tour for the 1st of January since almost everything was going to be closed.

Kyoto day 3 (Part II) - Kinkaku-Ji - 金閣寺 (Golden Pavilion Temple), Kiyomizu-dera -清水寺 and Fushimi Inari Taisha - 伏見稲荷大社

In that street we came across the old mean of transport – carriage and I wanted to take it but my friends said “we won’t have time to go to Inari-Taisha!” so I had to skip it this time.



That narrow street must be very important because there were lots of people everywhere, as well as lots of restaurants and shops to buy souvenirs. And it was whilst I was taking pictures that I finally started looking people using kimono like the couple below.
