Recommended sightseeing spots in Kyoto
Arashiyama
Arashiyama, once a retreat and playground for nobles during the Heian period, is still a popular sightseeing spot today, where the history and nature of Kyoto come together to create breathtaking views! One of the most famous landmarks is Togetsukyo Bridge, a 155-meter long bridge that offers stunning photo opportunities with the surrounding mountains as a backdrop. If you ride the Sagano Scenic Railway, you can take in the grand natural beauty of Arashiyama, especially during the vibrant autumn foliage or the cherry blossom season in spring. Be sure to visit during these times for an unforgettable experience! Arashiyama is also home to many historical buildings and picturesque scenery, as well as stylish cafes where you can enjoy traditional Kyoto sweets and matcha. Don’t miss out on these unique treats while you’re exploring!
Kiyomizu-dera
Kiyomizu-dera is one of Kyoto's most famous tourist attractions and is registered as a UNESCO World Heritage site! The view from the main hall, known as the Stage of Kiyomizu, is breathtaking, offering stunning photo opportunities with beautiful scenery that changes with each season. Another must-visit spot when you go to Kiyomizu-dera is the Otowa Waterfall! The waterfall is divided into three streams, each believed to grant a different blessing: long life, success in love, and academic achievement. These blessings make the waterfall very popular with visitors. Around the temple, you'll also find historic shopping streets like Ichinen-zaka and Sannen-zaka, lined with traditional Kyoto souvenir shops. Be sure to stop by while you're exploring the area!
Kinkaku-ji
Kinkaku-ji (Rokuon-ji) is one of Kyoto’s most iconic landmarks, originally built by Ashikaga Yoshimitsu as a villa, later turned into a temple. The current structure was rebuilt in 1955, and its most striking feature is its beautiful, three-story design completely covered in gold leaf. One sight you absolutely can’t miss when visiting Kinkaku-ji is the reflection of the pavilion in the garden’s pond, known as the "water mirror." The image of the golden pavilion shimmering on the water is simply magical. As you stroll through the garden, take time to soak in the serene beauty of both the historical architecture and the surrounding nature. It's a truly peaceful experience!
Fushimi Inari Taisha
Fushimi Inari Taisha, located in Fushimi Ward of Kyoto, is the head shrine of all Inari shrines across the country. It is known for being a place where people pray for prosperous business and bountiful harvests. The shrine's most distinctive feature is the "Senbon Torii," which consists of around 10,000 vibrant red torii gates, each inscribed with the names and wishes of their donors! As you stroll through the gates, it's recommended to take your time and enjoy the scenery. There's also a hiking trail leading to the summit of Inari Mountain, so feel free to challenge yourself! Once you reach the top, you'll be rewarded with a breathtaking view of Kyoto city and the surrounding landscape. Additionally, there are many shops around Fushimi Inari Taisha where you can enjoy delicious "Inari sushi" and "inari-zushi." Be sure to stop by and indulge in Kyoto's culinary delights during your visit!
To-ji
To-ji (東寺), a historic temple located in the Minami Ward of Kyoto, was established in 794 as a guardian temple for Buddhism when Heian-kyo was founded. Registered as a UNESCO World Heritage site, To-ji is known for its five-story pagoda, which stands at 57 meters tall and is a popular photo spot! The temple grounds are home to numerous important cultural properties, including beautiful buildings and sculptures, with the statue of Yakushi Nyorai, the guardian deity of Buddhism, also enshrined there. Taking a leisurely stroll while immersing yourself in history is highly recommended. In spring, you can enjoy the cherry blossoms, and in autumn, there are special night illuminations for the stunning fall foliage. If you visit Kyoto, make sure to stop by To-ji for a memorable experience!
