Japanese Castle usually has two moats. The inner part of the castle was the living place of Shogun, Honmaru Palace (本丸御殿)

After Nijojo, we took a 10 minute walk to see a stone plate, Honno-ji place (本能寺跡). There is a Honno-ji temple is Kyoto but the existing one was a new one. This plate marked the original location of Honno-ji where the incident of Honno-ji (本能寺之變). There has nothing special to see indeed. My wife asked why I en-routed here and I said that I came to pay my tribute to Oda Nobunaga(織田信長).....

hangchoi:
We would go to Kobe that night and before that we still have a few hours hanging around in Kyoto. We decided to have a short hike at Arashiyama area from Daikakuji Temple (大覺寺) back to Tenryuji-Temple. It took us about an hour or so walking......

The route was suggested by Japan Tourism Board and it went through around different temple and scenery....a nice walk indeed.....

hangchoi:
This is a path of soul cleaning....actually.......

hangchoi:
The last part of the hiking route is to pass through a bamboo path....which should be quiet and comfortable....but it turned out that the path is full of people, Chinese especially...and they are talking with Cantonese....Hongkongers are full on the path...... :-X
