- Attraction Introduction -


  • Arashiyama

    Arashiyama is located in the Saga area in the western part of Kyoto, nestled
    among mountains and traversed by the Katsura River. The Togetsukyo Bridge, a
    symbol of Arashiyama, spans the Katsura River, with various temples and
    shrines scattered on both sides. The shrines and temples in the mountains are
    filled with antique charm, and the Nonomiya bamboo forest along the Bamboo
    Forest Path provides a canopy that blocks out the sky. Whether it is spring
    with cherry blossoms in full bloom, summer with lush greenery, autumn with
    vibrant red maples, or winter with clear blue skies, Arashiyama remains
    beautifully serene regardless of the changing seasons.


  • Tenryu-ji Temple

    Tenryu-ji Temple occupies the most prominent position in the Arashiyama area
    and is famous for its beautiful gardens. Guests participating in this tour can
    visit the Tenryu-ji Temple gardens on their own during their free time in
    Arashiyama; the admission ticket is already included in your bus fare.


  • Kinkaku-ji

    Kinkaku-ji is synonymous with 'Kyoto' in people's hearts. Under the warm sun,
    the three-story pavilion, covered in gold leaf, shines brilliantly, and the
    small golden phoenix on the roof appears ready to take flight. The golden
    pavilion and the blue sky are reflected in the Kyoko-chi (Mirror Pond) in
    front of the temple, creating a picturesque and mesmerizing scene like a
    postcard.


  • Fushimi Inari Shrine

    The filming location for the movie 'Memoirs of a Geisha', it is famous for the
    Senbon Torii, a long red corridor formed by thousands of vermilion torii
    gates. Legend has it that the god of agriculture resides here, protecting the
    local people with blessings for bountiful harvests, prosperous business, and
    traffic safety, while foxes are considered the god's messengers. Foxes have
    been regarded as sacred animals since ancient times, as they hunt insects and
    birds in the fields, allowing crops to thrive.
