Kyoto Imperial Palace
May 24th, 2017

We enter from Kita-Nishiki Mon (northwest gate) after taking Karasuma Subway.
We got here one hour early to beat the crowd.























The ground is maintained nicely.
Many bikes used this path and avoid the major street, like a shortcut

























It rains that day, Pokie has to buy an umbrella.










































































































Under renovation


























The details by Pokie


























It is a hazy day....


















































An island within the pond














































































Cleaning is constant in this compound
























Bear with me, I made several composition of this bridge


















































































































































































It stops raining, time to go "home" and have the best soba in town.

























I found this sign:

Watch for aliens?
