This trip had been scheduled half a year ago. This was my first time to go to west Japan, so I was very excited and did a lot of homework about Kyoto. I heard from my friend that he saw many cute and interesting things such as cups, hand-made shoes, and cookies in the Japan-style hand-made market and I really like that. There are many little markets in Kyoto, but not open every day. After research the schedule of those markets and read a lot of blogs, I choose Kamigamo-jinja(上賀茂神社) to be my first stop on this trip.
