Fushimi Inari Shrine

Speaking of Fushimi Inari Taisha, it is “Senbon Torii”. There is a legend that if you pass through Senri Torii while praying for your wish, your wish will come true. That beauty has gained a reputation, and it is famous overseas and crowded with tourists visiting Japan.

Kiyomizu Temple

Kiyomizu-dera is a temple with many worshipers in Kyoto. The highlight is the main hall known for the stage of Shimizu, which stands out as if it overhangs the steep slope of the cliff and offers a panoramic view of Kyoto.

Arashiyama

Speaking of Arashiyama’s symbol, it’s 155 meters long, the small diameter of a bamboo forest with lush bamboo trees extending from Togetsukyo Bridge and Nomiya Shrine over Katsura River to Tenryuji Temple and Okochi Sanso Garden.

The contrast between Togetsukyo’s curve and autumn leaves is one of the most representative scenery in autumn in Kyoto. A light-up event is held in early December every year, and it attracts many tourists. The small diameter of the bamboo forest is also a wonderful collaboration between bamboo and autumn leaves in the fall. You can rent yukata and kimono and enjoy a walk with a rickshaw.
