Kyoto and related destinations

Between ancient temples and modern manga museums, Kyoto reveals itself through contrasts. Wander through vermillion gates at Fushimi Inari Shrine, where thousands of torii create tunnels of orange against green mountainside. Geisha hurry through narrow Gion streets at dusk, their white-painted faces glimpsed briefly before disappearing into exclusive teahouses. The golden pavilion of Kinkaku-ji appears to float on its reflecting pond, somehow more impressive than any photograph suggests. Nishiki Market offers bizarre delicacies and perfect ceramics in equal measure. Don't miss Arashiyama's bamboo grove, where morning light filters through impossibly tall stalks creating a green cathedral effect that explains why the Japanese find spirituality in nature.
