Japan Trip - DAY 02 (Kyoto) [Onsen Experience]
2nd day of my Japan trip! (March, 21). Explored the streets of Kyoto and visited Mt Kurama. The small village lies at the foot of Mt Kurama, there's a temple called Kurama-dera (a Buddhist temple founded in the 8th century), and of course, an open-air Onsen.

Fushimi Inari Shrine in Kyoto: All 10,000 Gates Explored ★ ONLY in JAPAN #24 夜の京都伏見稲荷神社
Adventure in Kyoto! Loads of culture and history in one city.
We've got all that and more in this episode of ONLY in JAPAN.
Kyoto's Shrine of 10,000 'Torii' or Gates is simply awesome. It's also ranked as Japan's no.1 attraction for foreign tourists*
Yes, it can be crowded during the day, but we'll explore this mysterous shrine at night when no one is around -- except the wildlife and a few stragglers.
This time, John will explore and explain Kyoto's most popular shrine, Fushimi Inari.
HISTORY:
Fushimi Inari is full of history going back to the year 717!
John interviews one of the Shinto priests and unravel some of the history that might not be in guidebooks. The lengend of Fushimi Inari is revealed!
Are those gates orange or red?
What's the meaning behind the color?
Which big Hollywood movie was this shrine featured in?
Who cleans all these gates?
John wants to know.
WHEN TO VISIT:
It may seem impossible to escape the crowds here, but you can!
The hours are officially listed as 10:00 to 16:00 but the shrine is open to all free of charge 24 hours a day.
Best of all it's FREE! Why? The gates!! They're all bought by people and businesses to bring them luck.
The best time to see it is at night. It's when most locals go with thewir friends, high school couples can be seen climbing up together. Night time adventurers will also see a lot of cats! That rustling you hear on the woods outside the orange gates may not always be a cat though ....
KYOTO BY BICYCLE:
How do you get to Fushimi Inari from Kyoto Station?
I could draw you a map, but it's much better to show you by bicycle!
Rent a cycle for the day and see more of Kyoto. Cheap and easy.
KCTP (Kyoto Cycling Tour Project) has a good variety of city bicycles for the surrounding hills or the city. You can reserve online or call and have the bike waiting for you as soon as you arrive.
The city is not always cycle friendly so keep to the left side, use the light after dark and try to avoid pedestrian sidewalks.
HOW TO GET THERE:
Here's the Google Map
Take the JR Nara line from Kyoto Station for 3 stops or rent a bicycle :) Taxi takes about 10-15 minutes.
*Ranked no.1 by Trip Advisor 2014 rankings on Japanese Atttractions

Japan Trip - DAY 03 (Kyoto) [Touring by Bicycle]
People said a popular way to get around Kyoto is by bicycle. Well, I think cycling is THE BEST WAY to explore this city !!
On a bike, you can’t help but feel completely alive in the moment, you experience and interact with a place in an immediate way. It’s a unique opportunity to experience a city in a way that will leave you with a deeper sensory impression, like you can hear the different languages that are spoken in different neighborhoods, you can smell restaurants before you see them, and of course you can enjoy the city and get where no sightseeing bus/train can go.
So, this time I visit Kyoto Imperial Palace Park, then do the Friday prayer at Kyoto Islamic Cultural Center, wheeling around Higashiyama, enjoying Kiyomizu-dera, and going back through the Pontocho area.

Cycling in Old Kyoto
Cycle hire is pretty cheap in Japan so while in Kyoto we rented a family sized fleet of bikes (shopper bikes again) to see if we could explore old Kyoto and maybe spot a Geisha or two.

Speed-walking Through Kyoto
I was able to go to Japan this past week from December 15-22 through a program sponsored by the Japanese government. In this program I had the chance to meet many great people and do many great things. One of the best things about this program was being able to explore my Japanese-American heritage and I walked away with inspiration to explore that side of myself even more.
The Kakehashi Project Japan's Friendship Ties Program is sponsored by the Japan Ministry of Foreign Affairs and put on by the Japan International Cooperation Center as well as the Japan American Citizens League.

Gowes Brompton di Kyoto Part 2 (Arashiyama - Gion)
Start dari Arashiyama bamboo park menuju ke Nishiki market untuk jajan lanjut ke Gion district tempat para geisha.
Di Gion, kita harus menuntun sepeda karena ada sign yang mengharuskan kita menuntun sepeda, mungkin karena padatnya jalan oleh para pejalan kaki, we must respect them.
