Kyoto: Temples, city lights and dragons.

in #travel7 years ago (edited)

On my journey to the original scene spots of my novel I had only some days to spend in every place. So I left Tokyo after just 4 days or so for Kyoto, the spiritual center and former capital of Japan.

The complete image series of the trip:
Nias / Ubud / Tokyo / Kyoto / Kobe / Osaka / Busan / Harbin / Harbin Ice Festival / Russia
