City with Parking Lot and Stone Marker


Which do you like? The parking lot or the stone marker. I, personally, like the stone marker. But some like parking lot probably. If you like the stone marker or a parking lot, please come to Kyoto. This city is sort of combination of both things. 


Yeah, it look very historical. Sometimes, from my view it seems strange because of the old thing and a new things.


That marker says "some samurai were died at this place in 1864. That happening is sort of big events. In the end of samurai period there were many many big happenings between the conservative side and the revolutionary side. That period is called "Meiji ishin(明治維新)" famous for Shinsen-gumi, an aggressive section of the conservative side and Sakamoto Ryoma(坂本 竜馬), who made a revolution. One of the most interesting period, and one of the most mysterious era. 

Kyoto has something in between New and Old. You can enjoy both, and you can observe Both!!
