Koyo in Kyoto (京都の紅葉)

In November, James and I took a trip to Kyoto to see the famous Kinkakuji temple (the Golden Pavilion) , and admire the fall foliage the city is so famous for. We also visited Ginkakuji (the Silver Pavilion), which is my favorite temple in Kyoto because of its beautiful gardens, as well as Kiyomizudera, the first temple I ever visited in Japan.

I'm already horrible at taking photos, and the overcast weather didn't help my poor camera skills, but hopefully this gives you an idea of the beautiful colors.
