Kyoto, Japan ⚠️Travel during the cherry blossom season.

Image 3, I forgot which famous cherry blossom viewing spot near Shijo it was, crowded with people. Japanese people enjoy not only taking photos of flowers, but also having picnics and browsing various stalls, so many flower viewing spots are covered with plastic sheets, making the scene similar to a local park. Many cherry blossom viewing spots in Kyoto are located in ancient ⛩️ and temples. The advantage is that there are no picnicking tourists and the atmosphere of morning and night markets is relatively light, but the disadvantage is that there are too many tourists. However, all the popular tourist attractions such as Kinkaku-ji, Ginkaku-ji, Arashiyama, Kiyomizu-dera, Fushimi Inari-taisha, Tenryu-ji, Nanzen-ji... are always crowded with visitors. During cherry blossom season, it's even more crowded. 🍁And don't even mention the autumn foliage season... For example, Long'an Temple in Figures 4-5... how to put it, a calm heart brings its own Zen. These scenic spots are all worth a visit! 11 years ago, my photography skills were only good enough to select one out of a hundred shots, but looking back, I still remember the stunning feeling of being there. Just bear with the crowd, it will be a once-in-a-lifetime unforgettable experience. ⚠️Tips: 1️⃣When planning your itinerary, check the Japanese public holidays and try not to schedule your Kyoto trip on weekends and holidays. 2️⃣️The whole city is filled with simple and elegant Zen aesthetics, and there are beautiful scenery between mountains and waters, which is very suitable for walking. When walking or taking a tram 🚃, put down your phone and look up more. There will always be a moment that makes you feel amazed. The 🌸 I like are almost all taken when I wander aimlessly. 3️⃣️Famous temples planned route for 2 days 🉑️to visit, others probably wrote more detailed routes but I'll save myself the trouble. Actually just want to share some photos. 4️⃣️Take a good stroll around the area near Sijiao. In addition to modern shopping malls, there are many old shops worth trying and taking away. Most of them are not tourist traps, but genuine old shops with craftsmanship. 5️⃣️There is a manga museum in Kyoto with a rich collection and stunning content. It's a must-visit for anime fans! The following few photos were taken at Arima Onsen ♨️ and Tokyo, I love them so much. The photos were all taken blindly with Fuji products when I knew nothing about cameras back then. Unfortunately, they were lost in a sand pit in Mui Ne, Vietnam three years later. I love Fuji ❤️. Kyoto, Kyoto Prefecture
