My favorite season

My favorite season is summer. I think summer is the most exiting season. I'll tell you three reasons about that.
First, there are many events in summer. For example, fireworks displays and summer festivals. I go to  Biwako fireworks display with my friends every year. A lot of huge fireworks are launched, so it is very beautiful and impresses us. Then also, I go to Gion festival every year. It is famous for Kyoto as a big summer festival and it is popular for many tourists. Therefore, the town is in a festive mood every year, I recommend you go to Gion festival.
Secondly, there is a long summer vacation. We can go to some places, so I go on a trip with my family or friends every summer vacation. In this summer, I want to go to many places with my friends. For example, I want to go to swim at a beautiful sea and also I want to go to Tokyo Disney Land. I'm looking forward to come the summer vacation.
Finally, summer is a bargain season. I always go shopping to Osaka because there are more shops than Kyoto. I can buy a lot of clothes at a bargain sale, so I'm happy!!
For conclusion, I like summer the best because I can make a lot of happy memories.

Kiyomizudera temple

Kiyomizudera temple was built in 798 and rebuilt in 1633. It has been registered as a World Heritage Site. One part of the main hall is a veranda. It is called the "stage of Kiyomizu". We can look out over the city from here, so a lot of couples visit to see beautiful night view. It is one of the romantic spot in Kyoto. Then, it is well known to the expression " jump off the stage of Kiyomizu Temple" means to do some thing with strong determination. In addition, a lot of tourists visit to see colored leaves in autumn. It's so beautiful! I go to Kiyomizudera, in order to see autumnal leaves every year at this season. I feel very good. I recommend you to go there.
