On my final day of my stay in Kyoto i went to Kiyomizudera Temple (Pure Water Temple) and later to the Uzumasa Toei Filmstudios!
Kiyomizudera Temple is on the list of Unesco world heritage sites and is situated in the east wooded hills of Kyoto.It was founded around 780 close to the Otowa waterfall.The waters are divided in 3 streams each of them is considered to have a different benefit effect on your body.One for longevity, one for a good love life and another for success at school.But you should not drink from all three this is considered greedy.There is lots of renovations still ongoing but nevermind this is pretty cool.

Next was Usumasa Eiga Mura Studio…..it a bit far from the center….you have to go with a bus from Kyoto station.It takes roughly an hour.Inside you can see rebuilt streets of the edo period, fighting Samurai and Ninja Warriors, practice shuriken throwing, visit a ninja maze and see Kamen Rider and Super Sentai Heroes!!!It was great fun!!!
