Activity itinerary

Fushimi Inari-taisha Shrine

Fushimi Inari Taisha is one of the most famous Shinto shrines in Japan and a spiritual symbol of Kyoto. It is dedicated to Inari, rice deity, prosperity and business, so thousands of merchants and worshippers have made donations over the centuries. Its most characteristic image is the thousands of red torii that form magical trails through Mount Inari, creating one of the most photographed landscapes in the country. Along the route, which can last between two and three hours to the top, are small shrines, fox statues (kitsune) that are considered messengers of Inari, and viewpoints with views of Kyoto.

Kamogawa River

We will visit one of the oldest rivers in Kyoto, where the traditional machiya houses are still preserved. These old wooden residences were not only homes, but also places of rest and commerce for travelers and merchants of the time

Tatsumi Bridge

We will visit one of the most picturesque areas of Kyoto along with its traditional houses with the concept of machi-ya

Chion-in Temple

At Chion-in, we will talk about how Buddhism came to Japan and the impact it had on the spiritual life of the country. We will also discover a curious connection with the ninjas, who found in some temples strategic allies and spaces to hide thanks to their unique architecture.

Maruyama Park

At Maruyama Park, we will pause to talk about Sakamoto Ryōma, one of the most revolutionary characters in 19th century Japan. We will learn about his history, his struggle for the modernization of the country and why his figure is still so admired in Japanese history

Nene-no-Michi

On charming Nene Street, we will stop to learn the story of Nene, one of the most influential women of the Sengoku period. Wife of Toyotomi Hideyoshi, his legacy goes beyond political power: we will talk about his wisdom, his role in wartime and the impact he left in Kyoto until today

Yasaka Koshin-Do

We will talk about the Kōshin-dō temple, a colorful corner full of amulets called kukurizaru, which represent the desires we must learn to control. In addition, we will know the curious relationship of the temple with monkeys, symbols of self-control and spiritual messengers in this tradition.

Kiyomizu-dera Temple

40m
Admission ticket included

The Kiyomizu-dera is one of the most famous temples in Kyoto and a World Heritage Site. Founded in the 8th century, it stands out for its large wooden terrace supported on pillars, which offers spectacular views of the city and the cherry trees in spring or the momiji in autumn. Its name means “Temple of Pure Water”, inspired by the Otowa waterfall that still flows in the enclosure and to which spiritual properties are attributed. It is a place that combines history, spirituality and unique landscapes, being a must stop in Kyoto.

Nijo Castle

40m
Admission ticket included

Nijō Castle, built in 1603, was the residence of the Tokugawa Ieyasu Shogun in Kyoto. Surrounded by walls and landscaped gardens, it preserves luxurious halls decorated with paintings from the Kanō school and the famous “nightingale floors”, designed to emit a crackle when walking and thus alert intruders. It is a symbol of the samurai power and architecture of the Edo period, now declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
