One thing that makes Kyoto such an interesting city is the mix of a very old society and culture with the modern day Japan. This contrast can really make for some interesting photos and can be seen all over the city. Let’s take houses in Kyoto for an example. Houses and buildings in Japan can really make for some interesting photos, but even more so in Kyoto.

Thanks for the comment. Yeah the houses are def special in Kyoto, especially the more you get into the residential areas. Also the wooden/bamboo blinds are very popular in Kyoto. You can see them other places in Japan, but almost every house in Kyoto has that style.
