Kyoto by the book ; I found novels to be a more useful guide to Japan than encyclopedic guidebooks
Victoria Abbot Riccardi spent a year living in Kyoto in the late 1980s. In \"Untangling My Chopsticks: A Culinary Sojourn in Kyoto,\" she takes the reader on a journey of place, culture, and classical Japanese cuisine. Her focus was on learning the intricacies of kaiseki, a stylized form of Japanese cooking that accompanies the traditional tea ceremony. \"Kyoto: Seven Paths to the Heart of the City,\" by Diane Durston, with photographs by Katsuhiko Mizuno is such a lovely book that even though I had originally found it at my local library, I decided to buy my own copy as a keepsake while in Kyoto. From Kiyomizu Temple, walk down the stone steps of the Sanneizaka, an officially designated historic preservation district, and soon you will find yourself wandering through the Gion district, that section of Kyoto made so famous by [Arthur Golden]'s \"Memoirs of a Geisha.\" There are still geisha in Kyoto. But you're more likely to spot maiko, apprentice geisha who are happy to have their photo taken with a tourist.
