Kyoto - Honen-in Temple is a small independent Bud Kyoto - Honen-in Temple is a small independent Buddhist temple, dating from the 12th century. Few tourists come here so the grounds were very peaceful. The most charming point is the moss covered thatched roof main gate and two sand art constructions just inside. These two patches of sand have been raised and compacted with designs etched on the top that vary by season.

Kyoto - On the grounds of the Nanzenji Temple we c Kyoto - On the grounds of the Nanzenji Temple we came across a rather odd sight, a large Roman looking brick aquaduct that passes through the temple grounds. Built during the Meiji Period (1868-1912) the aquaduct is still functioning and part of a canal system constructed to carry water and goods between Kyoto and Lake Biwa.
