Kyoto Oharanosato 🥰 Highly recommended ❤️

📍Address: Ohara-no-Sato, Kyoto

🗓️Itinerary:
It takes more than an hour to take a bus from the city center to Ohara, but at sunset, the two of us witnessed a sunset far away from the bustling Kyoto on the air-conditioned bus No. 17, accompanied by the green outside the window and the mountains in the distance.

After getting off the terminal, it takes about 15 minutes to walk to Ohara. There is a pick-up service, but my friend and I arrived a little late (about 7:30 pm) and we didn’t have mobile phone cards to make calls, so we could only push our luggage up the stairs. But we also got to see the quiet Ohara at night.

You need to change your shoes after entering the gate, and the owner will help you clean the wheels of your suitcases one by one. The entire lobby looks like a very traditional Japanese hot spring inn, which reminds me of a Taiwanese movie I once watched called "Chie Xiaojin's Inn".

🏖️Environment/Facilities:
After entering the room, the owner will first introduce you to the geographical distribution of the hotel, and give you several very detailed hotel introductions, which also contain his various experiences on the design of the hotel courtyard, which I find quite touching. In fact, it is basically enough to look at this and the hotel map at the entrance. I am not good at English and the boss and I talked for a long time. I was so scared that I asked the question "Can men and women take hot springs together?" The boss and I were both shocked.

In addition, the B&B does not serve dinner after 8 o'clock, but because they will reserve a table and prepare meals for each guest who has booked a room in the restaurant in advance, so when we arrived on time, although we were prepared to miss this meal, the owner was still very nice to let us have dinner.

Dinner was a very traditional miso chicken hotpot, and it was generously served with a large plate of vegetables and some self-service side dishes. But please forgive me, as a Zigong native, I really don't like Japanese food. Anyway, my friends and I said that it felt very authentic, but Japanese people should eat something good.

💞Recommended reasons:
The fish for breakfast was well received by my friend and I, but unfortunately there was only one piece.
It is said that many Japanese people who come to Sanzen-in in the morning come here specifically for breakfast. The restaurant faces the courtyard. No matter what, the dining experience in this environment is special enough.

The room we booked faced the courtyard and was right next to the restaurant, so we got to experience drinking cold beer in the courtyard after taking a bath. We took several pretentious photos in our yukata, feeling so happy.
The next morning, we walked to the nearby Jakko-in Temple and Sanzen-in Temple. We returned to the hotel in the afternoon and the owner drove us to the station. It was a very special Kyoto experience.
