Hi everyone,
I am going to Japan for the first time, in December this year! I’m going for 21 days, and am set on my itinerary.
However, my Kyoto days are a little confusing… Here are my questions:
- Do they look okay?
- If not, what would you recommend instead?
- Are there better options than the things I’ve picked so far?
- Any suggestions for ‘specifics’ I can add in between (e.g. cooking class etc.)?
Here is my itinerary for Kyoto:
Day 1
Kanazawa Station -> Kyoto Station
- Yasaka Jinja Shrine
- Kiyomizu-dera
- Check into accommodation (just north of Kyoto station)
- Gion (in the evening)
Day 2
- Hashimotocho stroll
- Philosopher’s Path (Yes, I am aware that it will be winter. Hopefully I can catch the tail end of Autumn foilage haha)
- Keage Incline
- Higashiyama Jisho-ji (Ginkakuji Temple)
- Nishiki Market & Pontocho Alley
- Funaoka Onsen
Day 3
- Fushimi Inari Taisha (yes, I am arriving before sunrise)
- Otagi Nenbutsu-ji (maybe skip depending on time?)
- Arashiyama Bamboo Grove
- Tenryuji Temple
Kyoto -> Osaka
Thanks for reading thus far! Any recommendations are also welcome.
