Having lived in Japan for more than three years, I have clearly felt the legend "it rains every weekend" in this country. Legend has it: the whole week was sunny, the sky was clear, and you started planning your trip for the weekend, then imagined the beautiful photos you would take here, but then came On weekends, it rained and saw my mother, raining from morning to night, from last night to the next morning. And that happened so often that I started to think maybe it was because of bad things I had done in the past and then retribution came at this time :)))))
I started looking for places I could visit and take photos indoors, without worrying about the weather. And today I will introduce one of those places: Kyoto Museum – The Museum of Kyoto – Annex.
This museum consists of a main building used mainly for exhibitions and an annex building (former Kyoto branch of the Bank of Japan, an Important Cultural Property) used for special events various in halls such as exhibitions and concerts.
At the time of my visit, the museum was holding an event Kyoto Graphie (International photography festival), which includes a show of works by Alejandro Gonzales. Let's see some of the works here.
Going deeper into the museum, on the first floor there will be a simulation area of ancient Kyoto old town.
In addition, the 2nd, 3rd, 4th floors also have exhibitions on ancient Japanese documentaries and cartoons. The entrance fee is 500 yen one time.

Museum entrance fee: free of charge
Entrance fee to the exhibition of Alejandro Gonzales: 1200 yen/trip. The exhibition takes place from April 15 to May 14, 2023.
The shops outside and around the museum are also very beautiful, mixing modernity and classicism as usual in the ancient capital of Kyoto.
When it rains, I don't need to edit photos of stores like this :))) The lens I used today was Fujinon XF 33mm F1.4.
A shop Blue Bottle Coffee version of "entering a family according to customs" in Kyoto :))) Click to see the restaurant address.
Walking about 400 meters from the museum, there is a very eye-catching StarBucks Coffee store.
And the last location is Kyoto Station, my favorite photo today.
