The two cities tour routes and the Chinese guide book are doing very well. It is the most organized scenic spot in Japan for a week of free travel. ~ worth a visit! The Chinese guide book at the door must remember to take it!

Very pure and impressively massive wooden temple , the largest wooden building in the world , with a serene and grand bronze statue of Buddha inside, one of the largest Buddha figures on earth. I first visited Nara and Todaiji almost 40 years ago. Nara is a quiet city. The sightseeing of Todaiji and the Nara park, with its adorable and sometimes a bit naughty deers, brings you a genuine moment of joy and tranquility.

It was quite a long walk from Nara station to reach the temple, but there are so many sightseeing spots in between, so you don't really feel the long walk. The temple gives off very tranquil feeling.

游侠半仙
The Phoenix Hall is a resembling the official hall of the Jingshi, consisting of the left wing corridor and tail corridor of the middle hall. It is a building not found elsewhere. The hall brings together the most outstanding treasures of the Ping An era's pure land teaching art, including the only existing Amitabha milk carved by the Buddha-made master Ding Dynasty, as well as 52 statues of the Bodhisattva in the clouds, and 9 murals painted by Amitabha to welcome the picture. To visit the Phoenix Hall of the Equality Academy, you need to queue up to buy a tour coupon first. There is an entry time for the tour coupon. You need to go on time. There is an artificial Japanese explanation for the entrance tour and you cannot take pictures. The Japanese ten yuan coin pattern is the Equality Academy.

We were pretty shocked that this shrine is small. You get a view of the surroundings if you pay the entrance fee of 500yen to enter. The gardens are very well maintaned and really quite pretty!Worth a visit only if you have alot of spare time.

The Buddhist holy place in Japan is the main field of the Japanese master of the Suga. We went to play in the autumn red leaf season. The red leaves on both sides of Omotesando are very beautiful. It is the famous place for the island countries to enjoy the red leaves. The Jingangfeng Temple is built by the master of the Suga. You can visit it in slippers and it is also a world cultural heritage.

The Nishi-Honwan Temple is the largest wooden complex in Japan, with buildings and fascinating gardens built from the 1st century. The majestic posture of the Yuyingtang and Amituotang in the courtyard is magnificent. The remnants of Fushimi City's Tangmen, Japan's oldest Beineng stage, Bai Academy, Black Academy, Feiyun Pavilion and other buildings tell the present people about the gorgeous Taoshan culture.

If you are planning to visit a castle, this one is much of a better choice than Hiroshima or Osaka castle. For a simple reason; this one is real, the others are fake. From Himeji station it's a 15-20 minute walk, passing by different shops with souvenirs and other stuff. The park of the castle itself is not impressive but the castle, completely manufactured out of wood, is something special and very well preserved. I'm sure tons of rework and maintenance is being carried out to keep it in it's original shape but it remains cool to walk through. There is a designated walking route through the castle which brings you all the way to the top floor with some great views over Himeji. After your visit, it's totally worth visiting the neighboring garden Koko-en. I would say, for both the castle and graden, a 2,5 to 3 hours is enough traveling time excluded.

Came on June 9, 2013. Kiyomizu Temple is a must-visit attraction in Kyoto. The landlord shrine in Kiyomizu Temple Scenic Area is also not to be missed, because this is the most famous place in Japan for marriage! Here, you can see many young girls in kimonos, flocking here to pray for God to give the best, is an interesting landscape. In fact, the landlord shrine is also a monument, the main hall, the palace and the main entrance are "important cultural wealth", with the important historical value and artistic value recognized by the state, it is worth seeing.

Renhe Temple, the imperial cherry blossom period here is much more than the general cherry blossom evening, can be said to be the last "flower see" in Kyoto. When more than 200 imperial cherry blossoms at Renhe Temple began to cherry blossoms and snow fell, it indicates that this year's cherry blossom season is really over. The cherry blossom sea here is like a gorgeous scene in your dreams, strolling along the walkway between the "Royal House cherry", which is a completely different feeling from the general cherry forest, as if it had entered a flower bush, surrounded by a sea of flowers. Looking up, you can see the towering five towers, standing above the sea of flowers, classical and solemn.
