Miniature fire engine with very tight turning radius looks ready to navigate the narrowest of old Japanese town roads.


Small, right angled, upright vans parked in the middle of a paddy field next to the equipment shack. Looks abandoned except for the fact that everything’s so clean!

Japan is full of inventive ways to pack more cars into less space. This is probably one of them, but I am not able to decipher how this one works.



Visually, Kyoto feels like it’s full of nooks and crannies filled with random odd things. Like a half-visible car with some excess space on the left which could have been used to park this half-car anyway.

Summer wasn’t exactly the most enjoyable time to be walking around “zen” gardens with very little shade and vast open spaces. However, it was easy to grab a photo with no tourists loitering in your view because everyone stayed out of the heat.
