One Day Trip to Autumn Kyoto by Night Train.
One day of autumn, I wanted to go to sightseeing of Autumn Kyouto. (^_^;
Because I remembered the Japanese garden when I had been to Spring Kyoto
KOTOKUAN Temple NANZENJI Temple NANZENJI Temple OOHOUJOU Garden
7:10; NANZENJI temple was about 10 minutes from KEAGE station.
In spite of early in the morning, there are some tourists and cameramen.
But sunlight had not shined temple garden and on red leaves yet.
So I thought it was difficlt to take good photographs, I looked for good positions
that I wanted to take photographs until sunlight had shined.
When sunlight had shined temple garden I had taken maney photographs.

8:45; I leaved NANZENJI temple to go to next temple EIKANDO.
At EIKANDO temple, first I watched some images of buddha and buddhist pictures.
After I had watched images and picturs, I got out building.
Then the garden had became beautiful, wonderful one that was shined sunlight.
Here I had taked many photographs too.

trees at the backyard.

And I returned to "Path of Philosophy"
and walked to GINKAKUJI temple

GINKAKUJI temple is very populer temple
in kyouto. So it was indeed crowded.
Consequently I could wacth the garden well.

14:50 GENKOUANN Temple Bus-Stop, 17:40 Kyoto Station,
16:50 starting Kyoto Station by "Hikari", 19:35 Tokyo Station.
It was possible and easy to be one-day-sightseeing of Kyoto.
The "EXPRESS GINGA" had been arrived me at Kyoto Station at 7:00 in the morning.
It was worth coming because of Autumn red leaves were wonderful.
The red leaves in Kyoto were more vivid than the mountain ones.
It was very surprized and impresible view.
I had visited kyoto this year twice . So I understood the bus route well.
And I could know detail of the traffic of Kyoto.
