If that means mid-November to early December, then you picked a good time, as the leaves will be turning colors around then.

Fantastic set! I don't make it down to Kansai anywhere near as often as I should, it's the real heart (and stomach!) of Japan.

quashio awesome. kyoto is so atmospheric i love it. the temples, shrines and landscaping, the moss, the fresh smells, maiko, arashiyama, gion, the restaurants over the riverbed, higashiyama, the covered streets of downtown, the arcades, fushimi, etc etc - its all a wonderful place to relax and explore. i really like kansai in general, maybe also partly because thats where my japanese language class instructors are from. you really showed the essence of kyoto well here, i gotta go back soon.
