Welcome to this new series of JAPAN VLOGS!!! Join me every Wednesday 5pm for a new Japan vlog. I film every day from our trip in September 2019 showing you Kyoto, Tokyo, Shinjuku, Shibuya, Mount Fuji, Tokyo Disneyland, Tokyo DisneySea. Hope you enjoy!!

It is our second day in Kyoto! We are staying at the Dormy Inn near Kyoto Station so we have breakfast at Deli Cafe at the station. Today we explore Eastern Kyoto. There is lots to do in East Kyoto. We start by getting the bus to the furthest point which is Ginkakuji Temple (aka the Silver Pavilion). We loved the walk up and the view of Kyoto from the top. Then we walk Philosopher's Path. Philosopher's Path is full of beautiful temples. We stop at Honen-in temple, Kounji (Koun-ji) Temple, Eikando (Eikan-do) Temple, Nanzenji (Nanzen-ji) temple, Chion-in Temple (chionin). We stop off at the old Aqueduct (Nanzenji Suirokaku) then walk through Maruyama Park. In Maruyama Park is the Kodaiji (kodai-ji) Temple. Then we walk through the old streets of Kyoto and find Yasaka Pagoda. We go to a Japanese Starbucks, Starbucks in Japan is so cute! Also Hard Rock Cafe Kyoto too. The main temple was Kiyomizudera. It was stunning! (Kiyomizu-dera). We walk home through the Gion District and see Gion Corner. We stumble upon our last temple Kenninji Temple (Kennin-ji) It was lovely. After a long day of temples and exploring we check out of the Dormy Inn and head back to Kyoto Station. At Kyoto station we reserve our seats for our bullet train (shinkansen) to Tokyo! We get off at Shinagawa to then change trains for Shinjuku. We check into our hotel at Shinjuku called Citadines Central Shinjuku. I give a little tour of our room in Shinjuku. I also talk about and reflect on our time at Kyoto. Hope you enjoy!! So many things to do in Kyoto!!!
