Day 4 - 9th June - Heian Jingu Shrine, Kyoto (Part 4)
Since Kamigamo Jinja was closed, I took the bus down to Heian Jingu, which was comparatively new (1895).
Entrance
There was almost no one there and I was scared that it was closed, but luckily at least the main temple building was still open. Unfortunately I missed the gardens, which are apparently nice, but I had seen and would see many others.

It's okay if there're no leaves - prayers will do

Unlike Kamigamo Jinja, gaijin make dedications here.
Something is special about this tree
A 6X peek at the main building. You can't see anything, but that's okay because when I peered inside I couldn't see anything either.

Notice the sign is only in French and Japanese. Damn French and their unholy anti-English alliance with the Japs.

I was a bit hungry, not having had lunch (I'd only had an onigiri and the green tea chewy thing this day), so I had some Shaka Shaka Chicken from McDonalds. Great deal for 100Y. The girl at the counter refused to use English, and flipped over the laminated menu on the counter - surprise! There was an English side.
Your future is assured at McDonalds. You earn more than a Filipina in Kabuki cho.
A tray of rice is 160Y. This is why McDonalds is so popular.
