At the famous pond at Tenryuji--designed by Muso Soseki, the "father" of the Japanese rock garden.
Arashyama's famous "moon-crossing" bridge--many Japanese samurai movies have scenes filmed here...
Caitlin cavorting with the monkeys with Kyoto in the background... (At a monkey park in Arashiyama where wild monkeys are regularly fed so that they have become somewhat tame...)
Since it was spring-time there were a handful of adorable babies, often misbehaving and getting put in their places by their mothers...
After leaving the Monkey Park we took a small-gauge scenic train through the mountains--most of the the photos blurred but this one shows the river below.
Rice fields north of the Arashiyama area...
The very modern architecture of Kyoto Station. (Taken right before our return trip to Nagoya.)
