Ok, I like Osaka, especially loving the food, however I absolutely love Kyoto more. You can see the Edo time style architectures in every corner of the streets, and smell the fragrance of mysterious geisha beauties walking by. The journey wouldn’t be complete without sipping a cup of uji green tea while watching the world passed by.

All photos were taken by my Nikon D40 18-200 lense or the Panasonic Lumix Point & Shoot.

Here is the collection of snapshots I’ve taken during this trip and I’ve made a slideshow video of them. Enjoy!

For those who maybe visiting Osaka, MUST GO eat the Truly the best cheese/sponge cake i’ve ever eaten in my life time. MUST google this place (難波 Namba – Rikuro’s Cheese Cake)
