Kyoto 🇯🇵: Temples, Culture, Historical and Timeless

Experience the best of Kyoto in three days, from ancient temples and serene gardens to bustling markets and traditional tea houses. This itinerary covers must-see sights like Fushimi Inari Shrine, Kinkaku-ji, and Arashiyama Bamboo Forest, blending history, culture, and local flavors for an unforgettable trip.

I like to spend time walking around so I can see and experience more (still didn’t get to catch a glimpse of a Geisha 🥹) Therefore, my itinerary is usually leisure and not so packed. If you have lesser time, you may combine some attractions to one same day!

Every traveller is different! Do what fits your travelling style 🙂
