First stop, Kyoto, where Soldado would meet some spanish friends that arrived the night before (everything was planned months ago, not that was by chance :)). This is the train station (the same picture they saw in the Internet and they chose as meeting point :) To be more precise: the column on the middle at 14h).
And there they already saw that it is very common for the Japanese to use the traditional clothes (and shoes..)
On the way to the Buddhist temple of Kiyomizu-dera
The temple of Kinkakuji (Golden Pavilion as it is covered in gold)
We visited Gion, the most famous geisha district, where we spotted some geisha. First we saw two from the back, as we were so surprised that were not able to shot a picture on time. 
But the second time we had her in front of us for some seconds and we managed to shot some pictures.
One morning we headed towards Nara to see the Todai-ji Buddhist temple (another UNESCO World Heritage) , claimed to be the largest wooden building in the world.
On the way to the temple we met some Bambies wandering around, waiting for people to give them some cookies.
At Nara train station we saw these wagons only for women. On the rush hours only women are allowed to take them.
And there we also entered briefly to see how they play to pachinko . Basically you get some metal balls and you insert them into the machine in order to get more balls.. That in an awfully loud room where you cannot even think.
In Nara we ate some tempura (vegetables or seafood fried on batter).
The next day we headed towards the town of Himeji, home to another UNESCO World Heritage: the Himeji castle, the best example of a Japanese castle.
This time we used the bikes to move around Himeji and visit the castle...
After that, we took a Shinkansen (the high-speed train, also called bullet train) direction Tokyo.
Our first stop, Ikebukuro, the district where we had our hotel.
Next visit, the district of Ginza, the first to resemble the fifth Avenue of NY.
The district of Shinjuku. The East side is a shopping area. There I bought a nice yukata (a casual type of kimono, worn in the summer or after bathing).
There I found by chance a very nice restaurant, where I ate delicious sushi (not that I am an expert, but a bit (just a bit) better than the one that we prepared at home :) ).
The West side of Shinjuku is home for government offices, like the Metropolitan Government Building, with impressive views of Tokyo.
Shinjuku train station is the busiest in the world (an average of 3.6 million people per day in 2007, according to the Wikipedia).
Akihabara, the electric town, is the shopping district for electronics, computers, gadgets in general and manga. Of course we had to buy something, although the prices were not as low as we expected. Nonetheless, I acquired a new digital camera and a nice MP3 player.
We saw also some ... mmm.... nice garments (they did not accept a picture with us).
There I ate at a very nice place. The cook was cooking the meat directly on my table.
Next day we headed towards Kamakura, 50 km away from Tokyo, on the coast.
On our way back, we stopped at Yokohama. There we took the second fastest lift in the world (45km/h) to see the views from the tallest building in Japan (295.8 m), the Landmark Tower.
In Yokohama we also visited Chinatown, the biggest in Japan and one of the largest in the world.
Back to Tokyo, we visited the district of Harajuku, where teenagers buy fashion clothes, to say it in a few words.
At Takeshita street you can find any outfit style, from Gothic to punk, rockabili, and many others I could not describe (see girl on pink...).
You would think that this shop is for disguises, but don't be confused, this is for a normal working day (it seems...)
Last day we were at the district of Roppongi and its surroundings. Here you can see the Tokyo Tower, a design (needless to say) based on the Eiffel Tower, but some meters higher.
And our last night we took a look to Tokyo from the Mori Tower at Roppongi Hills.
As a summary, very nice week, beautiful sights on the one hand (especially in Kyoto and surroundings) and some weirdness for western standards in Tokyo, but all in all, a very very nice country to visit (probably to live) and a very good place to eat amazing food. To finish, pictures we took with anyone wearing traditional (or weird) japanese clothes.
