Gion & Kennin-ji, Kyoto

June 24, 2023

Had about a 1/2 day free before our ride to the airport so we headed to Gion to find a temple that
was open to share their garden full of Chinese Lizard's Tail flowers.  Got there well before it
opened, but we found two others with open gardens, a university calligraphy club exhibit,
and more among the many sub-temples and nearby attractions...
