On 4th January, I went Kyoto for visit Kiyomizu temple with my friends.
We went down in Shijo. And we walked to Kiyomizu temple. It was a long way.
But we walked while talking. So it wasn’t too hard.

It was first time to visit Kiyomizu temple. I surprised at great view.

I pulled fortune slip. It was “ Hankitci ” It means pretty good.

And we went to Zishu shrine in Kiyomizu temple. This shrine is good for love.
We prayed so that good love came over.
We bought a lucky charm.
Now, I’m waiting a good man.
