Cycling through Kyoto
Day 10
Hired a bike today and cycled to the Golden Pavilion. It was nice.
Then cycled to Nijo castle. I paid the 16-18 years old entrance fee, although the woman at the ticket desk obviously knew I am over 18 by the expression on her face. Went into the old living quarters of the Shogun and it was gorgeous! I was amazed and ended up walking around twice. Not allowed to take photos in there though.
Finished my cycling trip by visiting Kyoto Manga Museum (pic to the right). It was more like a library really. Took some pictures and when I left saw a sign saying do not take pictures. Whoops. Back to the hostel after. One more night in Kyoto then off to Tokyo again.
Hired a bike again for tomorrow. Forgot how much fun cycling is!
