'You know it's raining outside right?'. That was the response I got when I went to rent a bike from the front desk of my hostel. I said, 'Yeah, that's fine.' I was only in Kyoto for a short time and I can't let the rain stop me, plus I had my rain jacket and water proof shoes, I'd be fine. Turns out, I'm almost positive my cheap packable rain jacket was designed for light rain. I was walking into places looking like I had taken a shower with my clothes on. I'm sure I looked ridiculous riding a beach cruiser in what at times was a heavy down but that bike came in handy as I road it to the east side of Kyoto and knocked out a bunch of temples in one day.

This is the list of things to do I used when I explored Kyoto and if you are interested in knowing how I got this list you can learn more here.

After wandering for a bit I found this map that really helped!
