With its 2000 Buddhist temples and Shinto shrines, as well as palaces, gardens and architecture intact...such as the blingin' Golden Pavilion, Kyoto is one of the best preserved cities in Japan.

Bling i think you'd have a ball there...
what really got me were the cars...celsiors (its kinda cool to see a lexus with a toyota emblem), cima's, mini cars that fit into tiny parking spaces, etc and the technology...they've got the coolest cell phones, gadgets, even the airport is "high tech" and the city is very clean and maintained from what i saw...unlike some parts of new york city...i plan to take my GF there one of these days for a 2 week vacation. the only issue is the language barrier but hey i'll deal with it
