It was my first time to visit Byodoin, a famous temple in Uji City, Kyoto Prefecture, which is pictured on the 10 yen coin and is only one stop away from where I live on the JR train line!
Then we went to Kinkakuji, the Golden Pavilion, in western Kyoto City.
And had a late lunch at the Buddhist vegan tofu restaurant at Ryoanji, a temple known for its rock garden that also has beautiful natural-looking grounds. (Ryoanji photos taken on trip with family in 2005.)

Hi, Amanda. I love the pictures. I will be in Kyoto in May (5/15-6/15) to teach a college class for four weeks. I'm looking for a school for my nine year-old son for that time. Any suggestions? Will it be difficult to find someplace for such a short time?
Hi Lita-
Would you like for him to go to a regular public school, and international school, a language school? I'm not sure what will be available, but I'll try to look into it!
