Japan, part II

Next up in Japan was Kyoto - the old capital.


Here we had a lot of must see attractions we wanted to visit. Some of them were:

Fushimi Inari Shrine with it's 10 000 orange gates.



Bamboo Forest



Japanese Tea Ceremony


Then is was time for another castle in the city of Matsumoto. Matsumoto castle is known as the dark sibling to the white Himeji Castle.


Our last stop before returning to Tokyo was the Snow Monkey Park in the Japanese alps. Here monkeys have taken over an onsen bath (hot spring bath) and the area has been made into a park. Could there be anything more cute than bathing monkeys?



The town itself was also very nice and filled with cute details and onsens for humans.




Although... Are we really that different?


Back in Tokyo we didn't have much time to explore more sights. It is a huge city with a lot to see so there's still a lot to be explored another time.


Some of our hightlights from Tokyo were the statue of lovely Hachiko and some Karaoke!
