Kevin Marlow: Conveyor-belt sushi, truly one of my favorite things about Japan. This restaurant is in the heart of the shopping districts, but is still a perfect dinner choice for locals and tourists alike.
Kevin Marlow: This market runs the length of several blocks and is filled with a variety of shops. Worth the stroll through for those looking for somewhere to wander.
Kevin Marlow: Beautiful bamboo forest in the Arashiyama district of Kyoto. The entire area is beautiful and worth a visit. Take the JR to Saga-Arashiyama Station, then walk a short 5-10 minutes over.
