Our fifth day in Japan was a busy one - we did our first full-day tour, which had six stops, including Nijo Castle, Kinkakuji Temple (also known as the Golden Pavilion), Kyoto Imperial Palace, Todai-ji temple, Deer Park, and the Kasuga Taisha Shinto Shrine. Many pictures were taken, and there's a video showing several of the sites as well.
This is the Ogakumonjo - it was used as the Emperor's study and was also used for the monthly poetry parties where 31-syllable poems (a longer haiku?) would be recited.
