Walking Tour

There are too many tourist attractions in Kyoto and if you don't have enough time, it probably makes you confused where to go.

Even though you don't have enough time, I would say wherever you go Kyoto is beautiful. So do not be greedy and feel Kyoto yourself.

It is just my opinion though...

I will take you to walking tour from NISHIYAMA RYOKAN.

This is Kamo river which is famous for river side dining
Here is one of the best places for cycling or walking. If you would like to feel Kyoto, it is essential to go.

It is also popular spot for Kyotorian couples at night .



This shrin is not famous for tourist spot but I like this kind of place. It is calm and there are many big trees.

When you are tired of moving arond Japan, how about refreshing in the nature?


If you find a good one, feel free to let us know!

Let's walk more!


Ichizawa hanpu is famous Kyoto brand for bags.


They have many different designs.

Yasaka shrine is just around the corner of the bag store. This is one of the famous shrines in Kyoto. Red color is very beautiful.


It takes 30 to 40 minutes to Yasaka shrine from our ryokan. After praying Yasaka shrine, I recommend you to go to Kiyomizu temple. I didn't go this time because I didn't have enough time.
I will go there another time and post the blog!

This morning, a yasaka taxi with pattern of a four-leaf clover came to our ryokan. Most yasaka taxies are with a three-leaf clover. Taxies with a four-leaf clover are only 4 in Kyoto city. We cannot make a reservation, so this is very lucky. It is said that this taxi bring you a lucky. If you ride on it, you can get a special certificate and sticker.

Travel to another city

I went to small trip to FUKUI prefecture last weekend. for Fukui I leave Kyoto at 11am I arrive there about 2pm by car. I have never been there before this is my first time. I live in kyoto city so I do not have so many chance to watch sea so I really enjoy driving the sea front . Fukui is very famous for sea food and hot spring. The weather is very cold when I was there so hot spring was really nice to keep me warm after the hot spring I had seafood. on the way hope I still feel warm because of the hot spring . I could really enjoy and relax on this small trip. From Kyoto station to Fukui station is 1hour and half by Shinkansen.
