Kyoto | Day One
• 8 comments •
After a 2 hour pleasant shinknasen ride from Tokyo, we arrived in Kyoto and headed to our hotel. The ride was extra comfortable since we didn't have to deal with our luggage (because it had been shipped from our hotel in Tokyo). Typically, we wouldn’t trust a service like this, but Japan is nothing if not safe and reliable. Our bags were wrapped and waiting for us on arrival.
We spent our first day exploring the quiet residential neighborhood near our hotel, and took in the sunset before grabbing a late dinner. We ordered from a vending machine (as one does in Japan), and enjoyed some Japanese comfort food of soba noodles with duck broth and katsu curry.

DeleteHave to try shipping my luggage next time while traveling in Japan. Was it cheap to do so?
ReplyDeleteAbout $10-15 per bag! Pretty affordable and we felt like the little splurge was very much worth it.
DeleteKind of fascinating to see what every day Kyoto looks like and not only the tourist photos you see everywhere/
