We got on the train and went to Tokyo Station to Kyoto. Since it didn't snow in Osaka and Tokyo, Yunluo and An Chuyu were still worried whether they could see the snow scenery in Kyoto, because they heard that it was not easy to see the snow scenery in Kyoto. After the Shinkansen drove for a short distance, a whole piece of white suddenly appeared in front of us. It turned out that it was snowing here!

After an hour's drive, Yunluo and An Chuyu finally arrived at Kyoto, the last stop of their trip to Japan. The first thing they did after getting off the bus was to go to the tourist information center in Kyoto to get a map of Nara, a map of Kyoto, and all the useful information. Yunluo was greeted by an old man who spoke very slowly and had a very elegant temperament.

He spoke very good English. When he gave Yunluo the train timetable book, he said, "This is a New Year's gift for you. Don't tell anyone. This is the secret of Yunluo and An's first meeting." Haha, what a lovely old man. Then according to his instructions, Yunluo went to the opposite side of the station to buy the airport bus ticket for the last morning. As soon as she walked out of the station, she found...

It's snowing in Kyoto! It's said that this is the first time in a year that Kyoto has snowed! The snow fell very fast and heavily. It started just when Yunluo left the station. When Yunluo bought the ticket and returned to the tourist information center to leave the station again, snow had already accumulated on the ground. This means that Yunluo can see Kiyomizu Temple in the snow in the afternoon!

First, Yunluo and An Chuyu took their luggage to the townhouse and put it away. Can you believe that it had just snowed for less than an hour? After putting away the luggage, they bought a one-day ticket for the Kyoto bus at the B&B and set off back to the bus station at Kyoto Station to take the bus to Kiyomizu Temple. There are many traditional Japanese houses in Kyoto, and you can see them through the bus window on a snowy day.

It feels special. Let Yunluo share some knowledge about Kiyomizu Temple. [Kiyomizu Temple is the oldest temple in Kyoto. It was built in 1940 AD and covers an area of ​​10,000 square meters. It was founded by Master Ci'en. It is said that Master Ci'en was the first disciple of Tang Monk in Japan. The existing Kiyomizu Temple was rebuilt in 1949. Kiyomizu Temple is a pillar structure temple.

The main hall is meters wide and meters deep. In front of the main hall is a suspended "stage" supported by large logs several tens of meters high. The temple building is magnificent and ingeniously constructed. Not a single nail was used. The six-story wooden stage in the temple is rare in Japan. The stage building stands majestically on the steep cliff and is extremely beautiful.

There is a Japanese proverb: "Jump off the stage of Kiyomizu" (清水の舞台から飛び降りる), which is used to describe doing something with all one's might. Transportation: Take bus No. or No. and get off at Kiyomizu-michi. Walk for about 1-2 minutes and keep going up the slope to reach Kiyomizu-dera Temple. The road signs are very clear and you don't have to worry about getting lost.

Other bus routes: Bus: No. 1, Higashiyama Gojo Station, only operates on Saturdays and holidays Bus: No. 2, Kiyomizu-michi Station Bus: No. 3, No. 4, No. 5. Kiyomizu-michi Station, Gojozaka Station Tickets: Adults ¥/person, elementary and junior high school students ¥/person, in special circumstances, adults ¥/because it has been snowing.

The umbrellas that Yunluo and An Chuyu were holding became super heavy, and they had to take them down from time to time to shake off the snow before they could continue walking. But because of this snowy day, this section of Qingshuizaka became particularly beautiful. Holding an umbrella, we finally walked to Qingshui Temple. When we walked in, we found that the snow scene inside Qingshui Temple was really beautiful, and we didn't know why.

I think it is much more beautiful than other places in Kyoto. Go up the stairs and you will reach the Kiyomizu stage. You can draw lots at the Kiyomizu stage by putting Japanese yen coins. Then shake the lottery tube and a lot will fall out. Tell the number to the staff and they will give you the corresponding lot. The snow scene seen from the Kiyomizu stage.

The whole place is like a fairy tale world. Next to the Kiyomizu stage is the famous Jishujinja Shrine, which is very effective in praying for marriage. There are two marriage stones here. It is said that if you can walk from one to the other with your eyes closed, your marriage will be good that year. If you close your eyes and need someone to lead you from one stone to the other,

Marriage will be good, but you need help from others, such as introductions from friends. You can also draw lots and make wishes. Yunluo didn't take photos here, so I'll find a photo online to show you. Come out of the Jishu Shrine. Walk along the mountainside and you will reach the best shooting spot of the Shimizu stage, but it snowed too heavily that day.

Yunluo and An Chuyu could only take the following photos. After waiting for a while, the snow began to subside. Yunluo quickly took a photo to see the real Kiyomizu stage, which was really beautiful. When leaving Kiyomizu Temple, it was completely dark. Originally, they planned to go to Gion, but the snow was too heavy, so Yunluo and An Chuyu waited for the bus on the roadside.

It took nearly half an hour. Later, they decided to go back to Kyoto Station first. Gion became Yunluo's motivation to go to Kyoto again. After returning to Kyoto Station, it was already evening. Because it was a month and a day, basically all the stores were closed. Yunluo and An Chuyu went directly to the Ramen Alley inside Kyoto Station to find food. Ramen Alley is the same as Ramen Republic.

There are also several ramen restaurants in the same place. Yunluo and An Chuyu chose Dongda, which is introduced in many guides. This ramen restaurant also requires you to buy food coupons in advance, and you buy them by guessing and looking at pictures. After buying the food coupons, give them to the clerk. If there are many people, you need to wait outside. When there is a seat, the clerk will take you in and serve the food.

Here is another story about coincidence. The two Taiwanese people who were waiting in front of Yunluo and An Chuyu were actually living downstairs in the B&B. Yunluo and An Chuyu discovered this when they went out the next day. There were various seasonings and raw eggs on the table, and you could take them at will. The advantage of this design is that people on both sides can take them.

The seasonings are easily available. The ramen and fried rice ordered by Yunluo and Anchuyu arrived quickly. The ramen was still salty as usual, but the fried rice was surprisingly delicious. No wonder many people order one ramen and one fried rice. There is also Hakata Ikkosha, which is very famous in the mainland and Xiangjiang City. After eating ramen.

Yunluo and Anchuyu took the bus back to the B&B and saw Nishi Honganji Temple at night. They woke up early in the morning and had a homemade breakfast at the B&B. Yunluo thought the Japanese breakfast was very strange. It looked like a small portion, but it was really filling, and the nutritional combination was very good. The flip board at the B&B was very interesting.

When you go out, just turn it to OUT, and when you come back, just turn it back to IN. You have to turn the sign every day. It snowed heavily the day before, and the weather in Kyoto was very good the next day. The Nishi Honganji Temple opposite. There will be lucky bag activities during the New Year in Japan, so there will be many people queuing outside the department store early in the morning waiting to go in and grab the lucky bags as soon as the door opens. Lucky bags mean that each lucky bag has a limited price.

Then the price of the goods inside will be much higher than the original price, but the quantity is limited and will be sold out while stocks last. Apple's lucky bags are even more amazing. The contents inside may be iPads, iPhones, or even MacBooks. So a few days before the Apple lucky bags are released, people will set up tents outside the store.

I saw on the news that there was a line of people outside the Apple store in Sapporo, Hokkaido. The police would go and push people every few hours in the middle of the night to see if they were still alive. Yunluo and An Chuyu didn't go to grab the lucky bags. They were going to take the Kintetsu to Nara. It would take - minutes to reach Nara Station. The sign said that we could exit at Todaiji Temple.

Yunluo found that there are several exits to get to the station, so it is not necessary to go to a specific exit. After exiting the station, you can walk for about 10 minutes to see Nara's most famous deer. There may be more deer on the sidewalk than people. Did you know that the deer in Nara really bow? Next is a large wave of deer, deer. Deer. Nara's weather is also very good.

There are many old Japanese houses in Nara, which are very comfortable to look at. The cartoon characters in Nara are so cute. All the way to Todaiji Temple, there are deer all the way, and these deer are very interesting. They stand in the middle of the road and will not let people, nor are they afraid of people. Instead, people have to walk around them. If you have food in your hand, a large group of deer will surround you.

They were really greedy. Very greedy. They walked and walked until they arrived at Todaiji Temple. [Todaiji Temple (hiragana とうだいじ) is the main temple of the Kegon sect in Japan. It is also known as the Great Kegon Temple and the Golden Light Four Heavenly Kings Gokoku Temple. Todaiji Temple is located in the east of Heijokyo (now Nara) and is one of the seven great temples in Nanto. It has a history of about 1,200 years.

Todaiji Temple was listed as a World Cultural Heritage in 1997 as part of the historical sites of ancient Nara. The Great Buddha Hall of Todaiji Temple is meters wide and meters deep, making it the largest wooden building in the world. Inside the Great Buddha Hall, there is a large Buddha statue over meters high - Vairocana Buddha. I will not take photos inside the Great Buddha Temple, based on my personal habits.

Next up is the deer. Deer, deer. To show how greedy these deer are, Yunluo’s phone case is in the shape of a gingerbread man, which is very similar to the color of the deer biscuits. They chased Yunluo in various ways, and Yunluo’s backpack strap was brown. Yunluo was taking a photo when she suddenly noticed something pulling at her from behind. She turned around and saw that it was a deer biting Yunluo’s backpack strap.

If you want to feed them, there are stalls selling deer crackers on the roadside. You don't need to compare prices, all are the same price, buy whatever you like and feed them, it seems to be 1 yen per portion, you can feed a lot. Feeding deer is also a skill. Didn't I say that the deer bowed before? That's because they are asking for food, so just give them the food after they bow.

But if you leave after feeding him but he still has food in your hand and finds you or goes to feed others, those deer will really butt you with their heads. It's true. Yun Luo fed one and when he turned to feed another one, he was butted from behind by the previous one. But don't be afraid, it doesn't hurt, it's just funny. And these deer usually don't bite people.

So don't worry, just don't irritate him. After feeding the deer, Yunluo and An Chuyu set off to the Kintetsu Station to go to Nara. For details on how to take the Kintetsu to Nara and Fushimi, please refer to the point in the transportation section of the preparation chapter. It is very detailed and Yunluo has personally tried it. Nara Arrived at Tanbabashi Station and got off.

Transfer to Keihan Railway. Walk to Keihan Railway Station, take the train to Chushojima, and then get off and transfer to Uji Line. The seats on the Uji Line are all matcha-colored, which is very interesting. It takes about minutes to reach Uji Station. There is a saying that goes like this, "The world's matcha can be seen in Japan, and Japan's matcha can be seen in Uji." Come to the birthplace of matcha.

You must always try the famous matcha here. Yunluo and An Chuyu walked all the way to Ito Kyuu Yamen. Everyone in the store is waiting for a seat. You can write your name on the registration book first, then buy souvenirs next to it, and you can sit down and eat when the clerk calls your name. There are so many kinds of souvenirs here, and they are not too expensive.

There are also many limited products in Kyoto and Uji, you can buy some to give to your friends. After waiting for about minutes, Yunluo and An Chuyu were seated. First, they ordered two signature matcha desserts! I have to say that the taste of Uji's matcha is different from that of other places. The matcha desserts in Xiangjiang City are too sweet and I can't stand it at all.

I tried Yunluo once and never tried it again. The matcha from Baodao tastes OK, but not as fragrant as the one from Uji. The matcha from Uji tastes a little bitter, but also a little sweet. It is very easy to eat and not astringent. This is the model dessert at the entrance of the store. You must try it. It contains matcha cereal and matcha jelly.

Matcha balls, matcha cookies, glutinous rice balls, rice cakes, and vanilla ice cream, everything in one cup, super satisfying. After eating matcha Yunluo and An Chuyu walked around Uji for a while, and it was getting dark. So we hurried to Fushimi Inari Taisha. It was almost dark when we arrived at Fushimi Inari Taisha, so I reminded everyone.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Don't plan your visit to Fushimi in the evening, otherwise you won't be able to see the magnificent Thousand Torii Gate after dark. Because it was New Year's Day, there were a lot of people at Fushimi Inari. Because it was already dark, Yunluo could only barely take a photo of part of the Thousand Torii Gate, which gave Yunluo another reason to return to Kyoto! After walking around Fushimi Inari Taisha and making a wish.

Yunluo and An Chuyu set off to return to downtown Kyoto. After returning to Kyoto, they immediately went to look for food. They found an Okonomiyaki restaurant in Kyoto Station to try the Okonomiyaki that Yunluo and An Chuyu had not eaten in Osaka. The taste was not bad, and the sauce was sweet. It tasted very similar to the taste of Formosa. There were many vegetables in it, and there were many varieties for you to choose.

There are not many attractions planned for today, mainly shopping. In the morning, Yunluo and An Chuyu moved their luggage to the Hokke Club Hotel, which is just opposite Kyoto Station, so that they can take the airport bus back to Hong Kong City on the last morning. After settling their luggage, Yunluo and An Chuyu set off to the symbol of Kyoto - Kinkakuji Temple.

[Golden Pavilion (Japanese: きんかくじ) (English: Golden Pavilion), the official name is actually Luyuan Temple (Japanese: ろくおんじ), because the building is covered with gold foil, it is also called the Golden Pavilion. It is an ancient Japanese temple located in Kyoto and was first completed in 1644. In addition to being a well-known tourist attraction.

It is also designated as a national treasure by the Japanese government. It was also designated as an important historical building of the World Cultural Heritage by UNESCO in 2000. Kinkakuji Temple is a World Cultural Heritage, and its official name is Luyuan Temple. Transportation: Take the ,,,, buses from the bus terminal in front of Kyoto Station and get off at Kinkakuji Temple. Tickets: Adults ¥10,000.

Children's yen opening hours: am-pm The ticket for Kinkakuji Temple is like a charm, which is very unique. It is said that it is not easy to see the snow scene of Kinkakuji Temple. Yunluo and An Chuyu were really lucky to meet it on their first visit. Today is still during the New Year period, and there are many people in Kinkakuji Temple. It is not easy to take a photo without people.

You have to wait for a minute to squeeze in and take pictures. After visiting Kinkakuji Temple that day, people lined up and slowly moved out of the door for several minutes before they could walk out. The golden layer on the outside of Kinkakuji Temple is made of real gold foil, not just paint. The weather is good, and the Kinkakuji Temple is beautiful to take pictures everywhere. After leaving Kinkakuji Temple, Yunluo and An Chuyu took a bus to the Kyoto people's market - Nishiki Market.

This is where Kyoto locals come to buy things. [Nishiki Market (Japanese: にしきいちば) is a shopping street located in the middle of Nishiki Koji Street in Nakagyo Ward, Kyoto City, between Teramachi-dori and Takakura-dori. Most of the shops along the street sell fish. There are many old shops selling fresh ingredients such as Kyoto vegetables, dried goods, and processed foods such as pickles.

Many Kyoto-specific ingredients can be purchased here, so it is also known as the "Kitchen of Kyoto". According to the classification of the Small and Medium Enterprises Agency, Nishiki Market is a super-wide-area shopping street. In addition to local residents, Nishiki Market has also become a must-see place for tourists visiting Kyoto, along with the nearby Shin-Kyogoku Shopping Street and Teramachi-Kyogoku Shopping Street.

There are also many restaurants and hotels that buy ingredients here. ] Transportation: Get off at Hankyu Karasuma Station or Shijo Station on the subway, and walk east along Shijo Street for about 10 minutes. There are many snacks in Nishiki Market. You can walk and look at them, and buy some to try. They all taste good.

After leaving the Jin Market, Yunluo and An Chuyu started shopping. Various souvenirs, various electrical appliances, and the New Year shopping malls were basically discounted. The Japanese yen was also flat. It was really easy to go bankrupt when you came to Japan. After shopping, Yunluo and An Chuyu went to the supermarket for the last time, bought some food to eat in the room, and then rested.

I had my eyes on this hotel a long time ago. The location is great, only a 10-minute walk from Sapporo Station. The staff is very friendly, the breakfast is delicious, the restaurant is on the top floor, you can enjoy the view while having breakfast, the room is relatively large and clean, and there is a handwritten weather forecast in the lobby every day.

There is a charge for washing and drying clothes. Please ask the staff for the specific details. It is next to Hokkaido University. There is a restaurant downstairs. If you don’t want to go out to eat, you can go downstairs directly. The taste seems to be good and there are often many people. Hakodate Blue Sky Hostel is the only B&B on this trip, and Yunluo has been looking forward to it for a long time.

After staying here, I know why it gets high ratings from booking.com! It's a 10-minute walk from Hakodate Station to the B&B. The proprietress is 20 years old and looks 20 years old. Her mother is 20 years old. The proprietress's English is acceptable, but not very good. She is a very nice person! The B&B is really very clean, and the cleaners are a few old ladies. (~^~)
