Picture backlog from Kyoto...
Here are the pictures I took into Kyoto on my first sightseeing day.
A few random pictures that didn't fit into larger groups. On the left are two temples, on the right is a tall shrine I just happened upon while walking between sights:

Kawai Kanjiro's house:

The main gate at Kiyomizu-dera:

Inside Kiyomizu-dera, there are great views of Kyoto (center) on a large wooden balcony (left). You can also take a drink from the Otowa waterfall (right) which reputedly cures any illness:

The gardens of Kodai-ji:

Konchi-in had maybe my favoriate garden:

The serious zen rock and sand garden at Ginkaku-ji:

The grounds at Ginkakju-ji:

They take their moss seriously at Ginkaku-ji:
