Kansai Travelogue 01
Nishiki Tenmangu and Kamogawa River 🌸🍃 🌺🌿 To reach Gion Shijo Station for the Keihan train to Uji in the evening, we took a break and then set off northward to Nishikikoji, heading towards Shin-Kyogoku for dinner. 🚶♀️ 🌺🌿 🍽️ Along the way, we inevitably passed by the so-called famous Nishiki Market and caught a glimpse of Nishiki Tenmangu Shrine. 🏯 🌆 The market was predominantly filled with foreigners, 🌺🌿 and the stalls were a mix of small eateries catering to Western tourists, as well as vendors selling 'authentic old Kyoto snacks' and 'traditional Japanese crafts', essentially a covered Xi'an Muslim Quarter. 🌍 🌺🌿 🍢 #Japan #Travel 🎌🌸
