Sightseeing in Kyoto

Today I saw some very beautiful temples and gardens in Kyoto. The age of some of the temples is over a thousand years, though reconstruction has occurred. Above is the Golden Pavilion.

Above is the Kyomuzi (Clear Water) Temple.

Above is the Silver Temple.

Above is the Heian Temple Gate.

Bridge in the garden of the Heian Temple.

I am predictably very happy to be on a bridge over this incredible pond. This is what my next pond will look like--maybe after the kitchen is finished.

Later my host and I had a delicious sushi dinner in a restaurant where the food travels around the front table. My favorite was the eel sushi.
