Photos: Gion, the Geisha district in Kyoto

Gion is a district in Kyoto.  It is beautiful but touristy and is now a shopping area. But I was able to overlook that due to its architecture, beauty and vibrancy.  Cars are not allowed in most of Gion which adds to the quaintness of the place. Here are some photos from the surrounding area.
