Kyoto - Temples


Kyoto is a couple hours southwest of Tokyo by bullet train. Is just a smaller city, kind of grid-like. There is a subway system, but only two lines, one running north-south, the other east-west. Most travel is done by city bus. The buses were confusing at first as they involve a complex queuing system for waiting for the bus, entering the bus, and exiting the bus. And the buses were way too overheated. It was cold as hell out, and the buses had the heaters blasting so hot it must have been at least 80 F . Miserable.
The interesting part of Kyoto is that on the outskirts of the city are temples in large, well landscaped parks.
