Went back to my favorite prefecture and city (of course, after Kobe). This time, I made sure that I got to visit the Kyoto National Museum. Yes, they do have a museum although I would like to think that the whole prefecture is an open and living museum in itself. I wasn't disappointed. I like the way they arranged the collection and each section detailing the contents and the highlights (in Japanese and English). The Museum Shop isn't as grand as all the other museums, probably because you can buy a lot outside of the museum. I really love this place - good thing I made the time and special trip for this, it was one of those long-planned thing that finally materializes but didn't end up with a thud....
