Nice to meet you! I live in Kyoto, Japan. Kyoto is good place for tourist. Because Kyoto is old capital city of Japan, and Kyoto has many temples, shrine, and other sightseeing spot. One of the famous spot is �Kinkakuji�. �Kinkakuji� is coated by gold. Kin means gold, so Japanese people say this gold temple �Kinkakuji�. Kyoto has �Ginkakuji� too. Gin means silver, but it isn�t coated by silver. Kyoto has other famous spot. If you are interest in Kyoto, please consult by internet.
Other side, Kyoto is University City. Kyoto has 36 university and college, and 9% of population is student.

I could learn and eevperience Japanese cltures. Also, Kyoto has many famouse arcade and depertments. So I could get moden items. And the traffic develops very much. There are many buses and trains. It's very convinient and cheep.
I think Kyoto is best place to learn Japan. I want to go there again.

Kyoto is a good place to travel. I have been to Kyoto twice. I visit Kinkakuji, Ginkakuji, Kiyomizudera and so on. These were wonderful. Paticulary, Kinkakuji atracted me. I could have a good time. I want to travel again.
