A castle with nightingale floors.
Nijo Castle

One of Japan’s most important festival happening during 14th-24th of July.
In a city with more than 1600 temples and shrines there is a lot to choose from.
Despite its name, the Silver Pavilion was never covered in silver (in contrast to the famous golden pavilion).
We came by Chao Chao Gyoza randomly back in 2016. This time we went there as the first stop when arriving back in Kyoto.
Located in the middle of the busy and cool Nishiki Market area.
