4 times to Nippon, 3 times in Kyoto. After so many cities I have visited, Kyoto remains my favourite prefecture. Surprisingly, I have not been to Arashiyama district, to the Nishiki Kitchen Market, any golden or silver or nailess temple, or the bamboo groves. It is just a place where ladies or girls can queue for hours just to have sweets for breakfast, not even saying any time of the day, nor was it with any partner. And the Higashiyama area umpteenth times over Arashiyama, and that impending regret to forget to purchase in a certain shop along Gionmachi that will transform into another shop and another reason to patronise the next year.
