Kyoto-Day 2 (Part 1)
This are pictures of our second full day in Kyoto. We began at Ginkakuji- the Silver Temple, where we then climbed part of the mountain that it is on, before continuing down a beautiful street (rated "Kyoto's most beautiful" by Lonely Planet), that was amazing because it was so incredibly silent, despite being the middle of bustling Kyoto. We then proceeded to follow the "Philosopher's Path" down towards central Kyoto--hence Zach's philosophizing. We visited various temples and shrines along the way before ending up at Nanzen-ji, a huge temple complex, with an amazing aquaduct. That night, after walking over two hours to get there, we went to a local sento, or hot public bath, before meeting Mark and Chrsitina at a questionable British pub. It was a very nice way to end the day!!
