  5. Silver Pavilion (Ginkakuji Temple) - #1 SPOT during the Sakura Season
    Also known as the Silver Pavilion, the Ginkakuji is a Zen temple located along the eastern part of Kyoto in Higashiyama. The villa was modeled after the Kinkakuji, and built as the retirement home of Ashikaga Yoshimasa. After Yoshimasa’s death, the residence was converted into a Zen temple in 1490.


  6. Kinkakuji (‘Golden Pavilion’)


  7. Drop by the zen garden when you visit the Golden Palace

    This is a UNESCO World Heritage site and the most calming zen garden in my opinion.

    Ryoanji means the “Temple of the Dragon at Peace”. It became internationally famous after Queen Elizabeth visited the temple in the ’70s. This zen garden has 15 rocks placed in a rectangular area but mysteriously you cannot see all 15 at once from any vantage point. It is presumed that the circles on the sand represent waves, small rocks represent hills, big rocks represent mountains and the moss represent the forest on an island.

  8. Nishiki Market

Why is compliance training ‘boring’?

-
Compliance training programs don’t respect the learners’ time: One study discovered that 70% of compliance training is more than 30 minutes long. More than half of that training is between 30 and 60 minutes. A small slice of training (4%) is a whopping 2+ hours long. Can you blame learners for not wanting to sit through all of that? Compliance training isn’t delivered often enough: The majority of compliance training seems to be delivered once a year, according to research. Delivering compliance training all at once could have an effect on engagement and lead to bored learners. A better strategy is to produce shorter compliance modules several times a year. This approach is also likely to increase learner retention and recall. Compliance training doesn’t resonate with learners: Another complaint is that while compliance training might be relevant to the industry, it has very little to do with learners’ day to day responsibilities. General training that can’t be applied in real-world ...
