Temple light up

Every autumn when the Ancient Capital of kyoto is ablaze with the bright reds of the maple leaves( kouyou )at their finest,a number of temples artistically light up their beautiful gardens . To see the maple leaves in a night time setting is indeed a wonderful sight.
I go to the temple light up at KIYOMIZU temple every year.
The Temple is one of my favorite temple when I visit there I can feel real Kyoto.
if you have any chance visit kyoto during middle of Nnovember to middle of december please check the temple light up!!

This morning, a yasaka taxi with pattern of a four-leaf clover came to our ryokan. Most yasaka taxies are with a three-leaf clover. Taxies with a four-leaf clover are only 4 in Kyoto city. We cannot make a reservation, so this is very lucky. It is said that this taxi bring you a lucky. If you ride on it, you can get a special certificate and sticker.

Travel to another city

I went to small trip to FUKUI prefecture last weekend. for Fukui I leave Kyoto at 11am I arrive there about 2pm by car. I have never been there before this is my first time. I live in kyoto city so I do not have so many chance to watch sea so I really enjoy driving the sea front . Fukui is very famous for sea food and hot spring. The weather is very cold when I was there so hot spring was really nice to keep me warm after the hot spring I had seafood. on the way hope I still feel warm because of the hot spring . I could really enjoy and relax on this small trip. From Kyoto station to Fukui station is 1hour and half by Shinkansen.
