Japan Trip October 2018 - Day 3 - Kyoto, Osaka

7th October 2018 (Sunday)

On sunday, we followed my itenary to Kyoto where we have booked the Airbnb Experience for Kimono and making sushi. So departed to Sanjo Keihan Station (Since we booked the Kimono from a rental shop near that station) from Kohama Station, as usual, we decided to follow the directions as per google (see the image below).




At Kohama Station. 


In front of the shop, with some local who was fascinated with us haha

Info on the Kimono shop:


Mai, the person who tends to us for the Kimono is very nice and although it is only through my observation, Mai's Kimono shop has a better Kimono pattern and designs as compared to other shops I saw, plus the price that you pay is for the whole day (we're requested to return the Kimono by 5pm). 

 



Beside the Kimono Shop. 



On our way to Gion. 






Okey la okey la I behave.


At Yasaka Shrine ❤

After roaming around the Shrine and taking hundreds of pictures, we decided to go to our next Airbnb booking for the Sushi making Experience! Lunch!

You got to eat the sushi you make, like seriously we packed a lot to bring to our homestay that night. You can read my review on their Airbnb profile, but let me say this, they're are nicest and warmest local Japanese that I've met there. 


After you have made the sushi, you can dine there in front of the cute garden. 


Can't believe we made this our self. 


Deserts on the house!


They're so so so so so nice! We requested Halal ingredients, they prepared EVERYTHING!


Outside the Sushi shop. So after the lunch, we decide to return the kimono and go to Kiyomizu-Dera Temple, which is quite far away (hence we decided to take the subway instead). The way up to the Temple is uphill, Sara and I wasn't talking since we had difficulties catching our breath haha



But the view was worth it. You could watch the whole kyoto city from there. 





Travel on Sunday, you'll see this. There's a lot of cute shops on your way down from the Temple. 


Then we went to Ayam-Ya, Kyoto. Decided to take the bus since its easier. Because it is quite a walk away from the train station. 


Ordered this, can't remember the name. But hey its halal, and its ramen. Like come on, you can't come to Japan and not taste ramen! And its really hard to find Halal food though. I think the shop is handled by Indonesian, but we hardly communicate as we're to exhausted that day. I'll write about my trip to Miyajima Island and Hiroshima in the next post!
