The Beautiful temples and gardens of Kyoto

The Beautiful temples and gardens of Kyoto -

I dreamed of Kyoto and its thousands of temples for as long as I have been dreaming of Japan. I love Japanese architecture and Zen gardens. One day when I have a house, my yard will be designed as a Japanese Zen garden, complete with pond, koi carps, rock garden and small waterfall. On my last visit in Japan, Kyoto was the only place I wanted to see as much as Tokyo. Although it (sometimes hard) during my visit was raining, Kyoto, with its temples and gardens, was even more beautiful than I had imagined. I spent hours walking the historic streets and in and out of the quiet temple buzzing. I ended up sitting, listening to music, and staring at a Zen garden for over an hour

But instead of Kyoto sublime and blissful beauty of yapping on, I'll show you even Kyoto .:
