What to expect

  1. Arashiyama
    2h
    Arashiyama, a scenic area favored by aristocrats during the Heian period, is dotted with historic temples and shrines around its symbolic Togetsukyo Bridge. The strolling gardens of Tenryuji Temple, a World Heritage Site, are Japan's first historic site and a special place of scenic beauty, showcasing beautiful scenery throughout the year. Enjoy a boat ride on the Oi River, or stroll along the bamboo forest paths to visit the ancient temples of Sagano.
  2. Kinkakuji Temple
    1h · Admission ticket not included
    Officially known as Rokuon-ji Temple, this Zen Buddhist temple in Kyoto City is designated a World Heritage Site, a Special National Historic Site, a Special National Landscape, and one of the 17 Cultural Properties of Ancient Kyoto. The temple is named after its reliquary hall, the Golden Pavilion (Kinkaku), whose top and bottom floors are covered in 0.5 μm gold leaf. The current building was rebuilt in 1955 after being destroyed by arson.
    Adults (high school students and above): 500 yen
    Elementary and junior high school students: 300 yen

    A famous spot for viewing cherry blossoms and autumn leaves, this temple is representative of Kyoto and is home to the main hall known as the "Kiyomizu Stage." Designated a World Heritage Site, it is known not only in Japan but around the world. From the main hall's stage and the inner sanctuary, visitors can enjoy spectacular views of the city of Kyoto.
    Admission Fee:
    [Adults] 500 yen
    [Elementary and Junior High School Students] 200 yen
    Admission fees are not included and must be purchased separately.
  4. Fushimi Inari-taisha Shrine
    1h
    Fushimi Inari Taisha, affectionately known as "Oinari-san," is the head shrine of the approximately 30,000 Inari shrines across Japan. Its history predates the relocation of the capital to the Heian period, and is said to have been founded in 711. It is said to bring blessings for prosperity in business and safety in the home, and is crowded with worshippers throughout the year.
    The greatest attraction of Fushimi Inari Taisha is the "Senbon Torii." The sight of the rows of vermilion-lacquered torii gates is simply breathtaking! This is said to be due to the widespread practice of offering torii gates as a token of gratitude for wishes that "may" be granted, or that "have been granted." Considering its 1,300-year history, this seems quite recent.
