Greetings to all Hive users.
So today I was thinking about something very simple but also kind of deep—if I could go anywhere in the world, like literally anywhere, where would I go?
And honestly, I don’t even need time to think about it.
It would be Kyoto.
I don’t know why, but Kyoto has always felt different to me. Not in a loud or exciting way, but in a quiet way. The kind of place that doesn’t shout for attention but still stays in your mind. Every time I see something about Kyoto, it just feels calm, like the city is breathing slowly.
Kyoto is known as the cultural and historical heart of Japan, but for me it feels more like a place that understands silence. Old temples, wooden houses, narrow streets, soft lights, trees everywhere—it feels like the city hasn’t forgotten its soul. In a world where everything is fast, loud, and always in a hurry, Kyoto feels like it chose peace instead.
I think a lot about the cherry blossoms there. I imagine myself just walking, not clicking photos every second, not rushing anywhere. Just walking under sakura trees while petals fall. That scene feels unreal, like time just stops for a few minutes and nothing else matters. I don’t know why, but thinking about it makes me feel calm already.
What I like most is the mindset Kyoto represents. People respecting nature, traditions, and silence. No unnecessary noise. No chaos. Just living slowly and meaningfully. Visiting Kyoto wouldn’t feel like a vacation to me. It would feel like a break from everything—from pressure, from noise, from constantly doing something.
If I ever visit Kyoto, I know I won’t plan everything. I’d walk randomly, sit somewhere quietly, eat simple food, watch people pass by, and just exist there. No rush. No checklist. Just moments.
For me, Kyoto isn’t just a place I want to visit. It’s a feeling I want to experience at least once in my life.
That’s why, if someone asked me where I’d go without thinking—my answer would always be Kyoto.
So this was all for this post I'll meet you in the next post till then bye!👋
