One of the valuable memories that I had in 2015 was a week-long trip to Kansai region. I went there with my best friend, Kunho, who can speak Japanese fluently but can't read and write any. Since I didn't speak Japanese that fluently, but I could read and write Japanese, so we decided to travel Japan together.

Beautiful contrail
Roaming around Namba and now we heading to Dotonbori
Dotonbori river makes beautiful scenery with the twilight.
It was the second day. We went to Kyoto. Rain started fall from the early morning. Weather was a bit rainy and cloudy.
Kamo river
Roamed around in Gion-Shijo for an hour. We started to feel empty in our stomach. We went to the random Karedon (Tonkatsu with Curry) restaurant. But it was the best choices among all decisions those we made in Kansai trip.
After finishing our lunch, we really wanted to visit the hot spring. So we got a suggestion from a clerk who speaks English really fluently. He suggested us to go to the small town called 'Kurama', which town located at the far north side of Kyoto. We arrived at a station and waited for 'Eiden Densha' to be arrived at the platform.
Through an hour long journey, we finally arrived at Ninose station! We actually meant to get of the train by 'Kurama', but this town was amazingly calm and clean. So we decided to take a walk towards Kurama from Ninose.
Signpost with Korean, English and Chinese!
Ninose town
According to the time table, there are only three to four trains are available in an hour. So this railway could remain the silence for few moments.
We walked again for an hour, got some help from local post office officers...
And now we arrived at the Kurama station! (Panorama shot)

Udon and Soba restaurant? But they all seem closed so...
