In this episode Kyoto, Japan resident Niall Gibson joins me for a chat on the new Reiwa era that marks a new emperor and empress. We also talk about the recent ban on street photography in the traditonal Gion section of Kyoto and highlights of the upcoming fall koyo or red leaf season. Fall is a very special time of year to visit Kyoto-with lower daytime temperatures it makes for great hiking and cycling weather. Niall will also have some special recommendations of sites not to miss during the fall season on the private episode of the Far East Travels Podcast.
