Don't let this gate fool you, you have to walk about 3/4ths of a mile more to get inside of this castle (it's Nijo castle, or in Japanese Nijojo, which I think is kind of repetitive)
I got pretty bored of taking pictures of things so I started taking pictures of people instead. Here some girls are feeding turtles and giant carp.
Outside of Kinkakuji, literally the 'golden pavillion'. It would be a pretty cool picture but for the fact that the actually building was burned down by a crazy monk in the 1950s and the recreation was mostly rotted in the 1980s. The building is still pretty cool, but this woman had her picture taken about five times while I was standing there, so I couldn't resist a third.
Went to a temple that had a flea market today. There was some pretty cool stuff there, but a lot of people.
