Kyoto is the ancient capital of Japan. It was designated as the capital since 794. It was named "Heian Kyo" at that time. Since then, it has become the capital of Japan many times and the center of Japan's politics and culture. The "capital" was called "Kyoto" at that time in Japan, and then it evolved into "Kyoto Capital" (きょうのみやこ), "Kyoto" (きょう), and "Kyoto" (きょうう), so "Kyoto" later became the proper noun for this city.

Due to China's influence, the construction of Ping'anjing was initially constructed in the Tang capital Luoyang and Chang'an. The north of the city was the imperial city and the palace city, and the south of the city was the outer city. The outer city was divided into two parts: the west side was called Chang'an (right Beijing), and the east side was called Luoyang (left Beijing).

After two generations of Kamakura Shogunate and Muromachi Shogunate, Kyoto was destroyed by war during the Eyeren Rebellion, and Toyotomi Hideyoshi unified Japan and rebuilt it. There is an interesting detail here. When rebuilding Kyoto, Toyotomi Hideyoshi required residents to pay taxes based on the width and narrowness at the door. Therefore, the old courtyards seen in Kyoto were mostly small and big. After the Damasato was returned in 1868, it moved the capital to Tokyo, and Kyoto gradually evolved into a cultural and artistic city, and is currently the seventh largest city in Japan.

Liu Jinpeng drove a rented car with three girls and two bodyguards to Otsu City, Shiga Prefecture. This is a seven-seater business car, which was rented by Asuka. From Osaka to Otsu City is actually about the same distance from the center of Heikyo City to Langfang, which shows how small Japan is. Otsu City is the location of the prefecture of Shiga Prefecture, and the biggest attraction is Lake Biwa.

If it weren't for the Dawenzi Mountain blocking the straight line, it might only take ten minutes. It would take only ten minutes to take a detour to Yamako District and Nakakyo District, but it would only take ten minutes to go to Yamako District and Nakakyo District, and it would take only ten minutes to go to Kyoto in total. So there is no problem at all when you live in Shiga Prefecture and go to Kyoto to play.

It took 47 minutes to get to the Otsu entrance. It was because Liu Jinpeng was unhappy. On the way, you can also see the express train of the Tokaido Shinkansen passing through the dedicated railway below. The town of Zeguan in Otsu is located in the mountain, not far from Hiei Mountain. There are also municipal primary schools and some private art galleries nearby.

It is said to be an antique town, but in fact, the houses in the town are old houses that existed before the Meiji era. After renovation, they have also undergone modernization and are currently used for tourism promotion activities. The person who received Liu Jinpeng and his group was the owner of the group, Kuroshi Imai. He is a woman in her thirties, wearing a lilac kimono and wooden clogs, dressed as an ancient costume proprietress. According to herself, her grandfather's generation started running a hotel. This is also considered a ancestral tradition.

Imai Kuroshi took the guests to see the house first. Liu Jinpeng booked a Japanese courtyard with hot springs, which is the most expensive. It is really more expensive than the suites in a top hotel. This courtyard is right behind the main line, with a separate entrance. When you enter the courtyard gate, you will find a stone stairs, and then a small courtyard. This is not a courtyard, but just a small open space in front of the main roof.

When I entered the big house, there were several shelves with umbrellas at the main entrance, with wooden signs hanging on them saying "Don't forget", of course they were in Japanese. The first big house in the courtyard was the stilt house that was surrounded by corridors, supported by bamboo and wood below, and the foundation was higher than the ground. This kind of house is cooler in summer and has a very Wujia flavor. However, Liu Jinpeng always felt that he was not used to it, and seemed to be worried that someone would lie down and eavesdrop on something.

The big house is full of traditional Japanese rooms, with paper fan shuttle doors and Japanese chandeliers, and air conditioners are centrally shaped. The air outlets are installed in the wooden grid at the top. You won’t feel inconsistent without looking up. There is a largest room in the middle. The walls and paper doors around are full of paintings of Kazuki. The characters are unique in shape and exaggerated in movement. According to Atsushi Imai, this is the place to eat, so there is a sink in the middle, a stove underneath, and a pot above. There is a circle of futons around the sink, which allows you to enjoy the original Japanese hot pot flavor.

In addition to this big house, there are two small houses. Next to the courtyard at the back, one is larger for the owner to enjoy the summer, and the other is smaller for guests. The Japanese-style courtyard is characterized by a small pond, dripping bamboo poles, lotus leaves, strange stones, and pagodas. Some also have stone statues of Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva. Fortunately, this house does not have one.

In ancient times, the bathrooms were not in the house, and they were all solved in small rooms built outside the house. Liu Jinpeng and others went to see it and felt quite satisfied. They had squats and also had showers and large makeup mirrors. The entire bathroom was divided into two parts: inside and outside. The inner room was a toilet, and the outer room was a bathroom. Of course, there was also a traditional pool for bathing. There was also a small entrance hall with shoe racks and other things.

Imai Kazumi introduced nearby service items to the guests, including one-day all-inclusive meal service specially prepared for lazy people. It includes 3 main meals and 2 snacks. Snacks refer to afternoon tea and late-night snacks. The quantity is not large, but it can save customers from trouble and is considered considerate service. If you don’t need these, you can only provide 3 main meals on time. Order is also possible, and they are very flexible.

There are also supermarkets and takeaway restaurants nearby, as well as some basic service items such as souvenir shops, bars, bookstores, etc. It is very convenient to travel without a car. You can directly take the Koxi Line to Sanko District, and transfer to the subway to reach the center of Kyoto. If you want to have a fun in Shiga Prefecture, Imai's boss strongly recommends that you must go to Biwa Lake. Ome Hachike and Biwa Lake crucian carp sushi are both very famous.

After Liu Jinpeng thanked the enthusiastic proprietress, he found that all the girls behind him were gone. After looking around, several people began to divide the rooms. Ye Ling also suggested that he would stay here for 1 to 2 days, so he simply let Liu Jinpeng take turns sleeping in the two girls' houses. This shameless proposal shocked Lydia, and even Liu Mei blushed and said, "You have the final say, I have no objection."

Lydia shook her head and said, "I really can't understand your life. Linda, are you so happy?"

Liu Mei smiled and said, "Of course, you will know if you try it."

Lydia quickly shook her head and said, "No, I ask my partner to be loyal to me. I didn't care about it before, and I won't allow him to do this after that."

Ye Ling was also a little relieved to Lydia now, at least thinking that this woman was not too threatening. She wiped her sweat and said, "Okay, Brother Ikki is back, let's ask him what plans he has."

Liu Jinpeng thought he was asking about his travel plans, so he quickly shirked the responsibility and said, "This is not my responsibility. Isn't the travel projects all your scope?"

Ye Ling laughed and said, "Okay, since you think I should care, then you will take turns sleeping with us."

Liu Jinpeng found out that he was fooled, but he didn't feel at a loss. He also said with a smile: "Resolutely obey the leadership's arrangements."

This matter was decided, and then Ye Ling began to plan the next itinerary. She waved her travel manual and said, "I have long wanted to go to see Ikkyu Temple. Do you want to go brother Ikkyu? Where are you?"

Liu Jinpeng actually doesn't like those cultural relics very much because he thinks that culture should be a driving force rather than a burden. Now some people are obsessed with culture and everything is back to ancient rituals. Otherwise, they are ruthless. These people are not liked by him. However, Ye Ling's idea should be supported. She was afraid that she found that the magic number Ikkyu had nothing to do with cartoons, and then found that there was no Xiao Yezi at all. At that time, I didn't know what she would do.

After deciding on the first visit, everyone will take a break for a while. It is also interesting to drink tea in a Japanese courtyard. Listening to the sound of dripping bamboo tubes and listening to the sound of the wind blowing through the treetops, it can make people calm down. Speaking of which, these historical buildings in Japan are well preserved, which is probably related to their simple history. The Emperor is a master, and of course it is not so tragic.

In the afternoon, I drove to Tanabe City, Kyoto. Ikkyu Temple is located near Daqian. This place name is also very interesting. Liu Jinpeng took it over and said to the girls: "After seeing this name, you know that this place is often owed wages, and it is still owed. There is also a small wage in the south. I guess you should be more optimistic there." In fact, in Japanese, salary refers to firewood, and owed means missing.

The girls laughed, and Lydia also covered her stomach and said contempt: "What a ignorant guy."

Liu Mei was unhappy when she heard this and said deliberately: "Lida, do you know what it means to be a big salary?"

As a result, Lydia didn't know, so Liu Mei gave Liu Jinpeng a wink. Liu Jinpeng laughed and said, "I know, but I just won't say it." Liu Mei didn't get the expected answer and pinched him hatefully.

Ikki Temple was originally named Shuenen'an, but Liu Jinpeng was called Shi Nai'an, who smiled and squatted down with his stomach and rubbed for a long time. From the outside, Ikki Temple was a dilapidated small temple. The entrance was only a little over one meter. There was a sign of the Cultural and Financial Protection Association at the door, and there was a free visit sign. Lydia thought that this was good in Japan. Many historical sites were not collected or paid for less, but they protected them very well, which was really rare.

However, Liu Jinpeng immediately refuted her and said, "There are too many people going to places like Jinkaku Temple, so the ticket price has been raised and the number of people has been limited. I don't think they have no economic concept." Lydia never argues with Liu Jinpeng in this regard. She knows that even if it makes sense, she can't argue about him, because both girls will not support her.

Ikki Temple entered from the entrance and saw a screen with a tiger painted. Ye Ling ran over there excitedly to take photos, and pulled Liu Jinpeng with him. Next to the screen was a souvenir shop, which was actually two counters, with Buddhist beads, blessing bags, wealth and longevity chopsticks, etc. The blessing bags were divided into longevity, traffic safety, family stability, and zodiac signs. Ye Ling bought all the four girls and Liu Jinpeng's zodiac signs. Liu Jinpeng specially bought the Rice Man-shaped figure for Lin Lin and Eva, which was considered a wish for her success.

Strangely, this souvenir shop actually sells other messy things, such as qualified pencils, headdresses with colored beads, silver-plated gold-plated corsages, various books related to Ikkyu, teapots for bald monks, and a statue of bald monks, but that was not a sale. Ye Ling paid for a few albums of "Ikkyu" and knew it was printed in the later period to cheat money. She said she took it back and used it as a gift for Miling and Mihua.

What Ye Ling likes the most here is a print of Brother Yixiu and Xiao Yezi sweeping the floor, priced at 6,000 yen, and was bought by the big guy Xiao Yezi without hesitation, saying that he would go back and hang it in the room. Liu Mei and Lydia were not interested in these, but they still bought some lucky charms. Anyway, they have been here and don’t care about such a small amount of money. (To be continued...)
