After going to Osaka, we returned to Kyoto to visit some iconic shrines and temples, check out a samurai museum, and to go to the market for some good food. Some highlights were Kinkaku-Ji temple, which was beautiful, having a high quality sushi lunch at Nishiki market, and the samurai musuem.

On March 19th and 20th, half of the group saw and did amazing things, like watching Sumo Wrestling, going to Hiroshima, and more. But that’s not what me and my cousins did. We went to Universal Studios Japan! It was amazing. It’s big enough that there is so much to see, but you can do it all in two days. Some highlights were the food, there was a lot that we got including a real shark meat sandwich from Jaws Land, chocolate churros, Mario’s drink, Princess Peach popcorn, and NY style pizza. Some of my favorite rides were The Flying Dinasour (the scariest ride I have ever done), The Hollywood Dream, Bowsers Challenge, The Jurassic Park Ride, JAWS, and Harry Potter the Forbidden Journey. I’ll attack some photos from the web below. Also meeting all the characters was really fun and nice. Overall, it was a amazing theme park, and I recommend it if you are coming to Japan.
