A few more pictures of Kyoto...

More Kyoto pics. I'll only describe a few of them. Red leaves don't need much of a description.



I took this one because the guy is sweeping the forest. Kyoto must hire hundreds or maybe thousands of people to sweep leaves off the forest floor.
This is the Nijo-jou castle inside Kyoto. I believe that it belonged to one of the Shogun's and was then given to the Emperor to live in before he was allowed to move to Tokyo.


Kyoto station. Some pretty amazing architecture going on in this building. Amazing.

This was the front of the Battleship Yamato. Not the real one of course but the size is 1:1. They used it in filming of the movie Yamato I believe.


Kyoto station again. The steps are pretty breathtaking. There's sort of an open air garden up on the roof.

The next pictures are all from Ginkaku-ji I believe. I really like the sunlight in the first one-it was exactly the effect I was going for.
