Stillwater Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 This is how we simmers move from Osaka to visit Kyoto: And this is how the usual travellers have to do it: The Imperial Gardens from the air... ... and from the ground: It takes slightly longer to walk down to Kyoto tower than to fly. This is why you can hardly see it in the screenie (in the left of the picture, underneath nr. "1"), while the view from top was taken a bit later... Long time to wait before we get OpenLC_East Asia. What a pity, if you see the Osaka coast... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vora Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 wow, a walk down the memory lane... have been to Kyoto last december. A 4h ride on the Shinkansen from Tokyo. Unfortunately the imperial palace was closed at that time. But thankfully there are the golden and silver shrines. When you're over there don't forget to hunt down the Technobrain scenery CDs (at least Naha, Haneda and New Chitose). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

adambar Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 My kind of paint Gerold, great shots! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moonman Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 Great shots Gerold - from within the sim and the "real world" - bringing back some good memories. However, only made it to Tohoku in the northeast of Honshu, while i was travelling Japan a few years back. I really hope to visit other areas in Japan as well sometime in the future. Until then and for now though i will simply continue enjoying Your great screenshots here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VH-KDK Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 Excellent set Gerold. Like to see the RL shots too. Looks like you will need to get the paint brush out and working in the near future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Bluebear Just FS Global real weather, set to the same time of the real life shots. wow, a walk down the memory lane... have been to Kyoto last december. A 4h ride on the Shinkansen from Tokyo.

Volker, I suppose you stood in front of this sign: We were lucky and found the Imperial Household Office approx. 100 m west of the entrance, got entry cards for the afternoon there. Great post Mr.Stillwater . :smile: Cheers Brad My kind of paint Gerold, great shots! Thanks Brad & Adam, my pleasure to use such a well-suited livery. Great shots Gerold - from within the sim and the "real world" - bringing back some good memories.

Until then and for now though i will simply continue enjoying Your great screenshots here! Let´s see what is faster: Your next Japan trip or OpenLC_Asia? At least we have this forum to prepare... Excellent set Gerold. Like to see the RL shots too. Looks like you will need to get the paint brush out and working in the near future. To be honest I can´t use the paint brush. I simply rely on the dedicated masters around here . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dolf8857 Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 A wonderfull set again Gerold! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vora Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Nah, both palaces were really closed (for weeks at that time). We were in the tea house and the "academy" in the south of the park, as well as in the Shirakumo shrine. After several days of Tokyo it was really a nice change.

Stillwater Posted August 25, 2015 Author Share Posted August 25, 2015 A wonderfull set again Gerold! Nice set, that plane needs a wash and brush up Thank you bith, I´ll do my worst to clean it. I think a little wear fits to this plane quite well... Nah, both palaces were really closed (for weeks at that time). We were in the tea house and the "academy" in the south of the park, as well as in the Shirakumo shrine. After several days of Tokyo it was really a nice change. OK, so no chance for you. But if it may release you: It is not so much outstanding, the other temples / shrines / castles around had the same attractivity (to me). May be there is enough to see for many days...
