Today was our last full day in Kyoto. We ventured onto a different bus line and visited the Nishiki Market in downtown Kyoto. This market has been here for centuries. It started as a fish wholesale district but now sells all kinds of foodstuffs, some of which I would not be game to try. For example, one trader had skewers with a sign saying "eel inside", which from their appearance I assumed means the guts of eels.
In the main shopping area a department store window had these pictures of cat and dog characters. I could not figure what they were meant to convey but I liked them anyway.
