And On, Into the Garden

Back on the path we moved on downhill, planning to end up at Nanzenji, but making a brief diversion when we reached the end of the actual Philosopher's Path, sidetracking into a little temple and graveyard that's not significant enough to feature on the city map but was nonetheless quite charming.

Of course, if you're into crowds and being jostled, go for the obvious attractions, but Kyoto has thousands of sites, and some of the less acclaimed aren't that far short of the headliners as far as the aesthetics are concerned.
