Kyoto Shopping Haul-Part 1

 Kyoto is a shoppers paradise if you love traditional crafts like me. As I mentioned previously, the best places for souvenir shopping are Kyoto Station and the areas leading to temples and shrines.
 Delicious green tea cake.  There are many green tea products on offer all over Kyoto.  They love the stuff!
I love this little tote bag from Kyoto Station.
Cute rabbit display from the Chirimen Craft Museum.

These are from a lovely little shop situated on the Path of Philosophy.

  1. That is an impressive haul! I love the steep approach to Kiyomizu-dera in Kyoto (Chawan-zaka) with all the traditional shops that sell Kyoto handicrafts and souvenirs.
