KYOTO part1

Today, we went to Toji(東寺) and Jingoji(神護寺), so we moved to KYOTO!

Toji has many statures of Buddha, too. But, we experienced more good incident in Jingoji.
Jingoji is in the heart of the mountain. It was a beautiful landscape. To climb up the stone steps was very hard, but ifyou can climbup, you can see autumnal tints.

KYOTO!

Today, I can go wherever I want. So, I planed my schedule. I decided to go to KYOTO!
First, I went to Honpouji(本法寺), where is closely connected with Touhaku Hasegawa(長谷川等伯).
Next I went to Nijo castle(二条城). There are many kano school's(狩野派) works. But, most of them are now detached, preserved in treasury. Instead, copyes are attached there.
Then I went to Rokuharamitsuji(六波羅蜜寺) and Rikudochinnoji(六道珍皇寺).
Came back to Nara, I went to Hokuendo at Koufukuji(北円堂@興福寺) and Nara National Museum.
