13 December 2007 A Few Kyoto Shots

 

They love those new blue LEDs here. (Corner of Kawaramachi and Shijo)

 

Building something new close to an old temple in the middle of the city. (Kawaramachi below Oike)

 

See the little alleyway in the center? That leads to an upscale restaurant. Very Kyoto-esque. (Kiyamachi above Sanjo)

 

Finally, this one shows an old temple surrounded by many new buildings. The front of the temple faces the right of the frame, while in back is the temple graveyard. They are building something new here, too, and you can bet that the wall of the new building is going to be about one centimeter away from the closest gravestone. (Takoyakushi and Kawaramachi)
