Discover the old capital of Japan on this day trip to Kyoto from Osaka. Buddhist temples, gardens, imperial palaces, Shinto shrines, and much more await you!
Description
At 9 am, we'll meet at the JR Namba OCAT 1F train station. The bus will take us to the city of Kyoto, with the ride lasting about 1 hour.
The first stop will be Fushimi Inari-Taisha, the main Shinto shrine in Kyoto and one of the most beautiful temples in the country. After exploring this temple, we'll proceed to Kiyomizudera Temple, a UNESCO World Heritage Site that is an iconic landmark of the ancient Japanese capital.
At around 1 pm, we'll have a stop for a traditional-style lunch at a local restaurant, consisting of a rice dish with tofu and vegetable tempura.
After lunch, we'll head to Kinkaku-ji, also known as the Golden Pavilion, which was once the residence of Shogun Ashikaga Yoshimitsu.
Our last destination will be Arashiyama and its famous bamboo forest, an area perfect for photography with its winding paths. Finally, we'll return to Osaka, concluding the tour by 6:30 pm.
