Tatsumi-bashi Bridge in Gion is a very atmospheric little bridge (Kyoto)

Tatsumi-bashi Bridge is a atmospheric spot in the Gion area.The area around this small bridge over the Shirakawa River is usually crowded with tourists taking commemorative photos.Luckily, it was a cold day, so there were not many people around and I was able to enjoy the atmosphere of Kyoto. After crossing Tatsumi-bashi Bridge, the stone pavement continues on, and this is another place where you can feel the atmosphere of Kyoto.

Teahouses of different styles at Katsura Rikyu(Kyoto)

I end up taking many pictures of things that interest me. The teahouses of Katsura Rikyu(Katsura Imperial Villa) are shown here. After all, it is better to see the real thing than to see it in a photograph. The real thing has a different atmosphere than the picture.
