Kyoto | Immersed in the Warmth of Caramel and Cream 🍼

🍼Let me share a place in Kyoto that's worth visiting beyond the usual tourist spots—the Kyoto City Kyocera Museum of Art (Kyoto Municipal Museum of Art). 🌿 The café-brown Japanese wooden tones combined with the ⚪️ cream-white spiral staircase make it feel like you're wrapped in a 🥧 caramel cream cake. 🌇🌿 This rare warmth in a museum setting perfectly captures the cozy, autumnal Maillard reaction vibe. 🍂 🏛️ Established in 1933 and reopened after a renovation in 2020, the museum's architecture beautifully blends 20th-century Western styles with traditional Japanese aesthetics. It has both modern minimalist beauty and the weight and character of ancient architecture. 🍼 Outside the first-floor gallery, there's a Japanese garden 🌳. Through the large floor-to-ceiling windows, you can see lush greenery. 🌇🌿 It's so pleasant to sit quietly and watch the wind, clouds, and little birds perching on branches. #Kyoto 🌇🌿
