Our Favourites
Come to Katsuoji Temple in Osaka, an ancient temple famous for praying for "victory". The most special thing is the countless cute "Daruma Dolls" in the temple. You can make a wish to Daruma and pray for success in your career, studies or various challenges in life. Katsuoji Temple has beautiful scenery in all seasons, especially in autumn when the maple leaves turn red. Come here to feel the full "victory" energy and take unique Daruma photos! When you come to Uji, Kyoto, you must not miss the Phoenix Hall of Byodoin Temple, which is listed as a World Heritage Site. This iconic building not only stands elegantly on the pond, reflecting the picturesque scenery, but is also the pattern on the Japanese 10-yen coin! Built in the Heian period, Phoenix Hall perfectly reflects people's imagination of the Buddhist Pure Land at that time. You can enjoy its unique architectural beauty, precious Buddha statues, and the changing garden scenery of the four seasons, and feel the history and cultural heritage spanning thousands of years. Arashiyama is one of the most attractive and popular tourist areas in Kyoto, and one of the most famous cherry blossom and autumn leaf viewing spots in Japan. This place is famous for its amazing bamboo forest trails, where towering green bamboos form a quiet green tunnel that makes you feel like you are in a living ink painting. In Arashiyama, you can also enjoy the iconic Togetsukyo Bridge across the Oi River, as well as the historic Tenryuji Temple, and fully appreciate the natural beauty of Arashiyama that changes with the seasons. The itinerary includes the unique and delicious representative food of the Kyoto area - pork shabu-shabu set meal. With high-quality tofu as the main character, paired with local pork, it presents a light, pure and healthy flavor. The side dishes also include a variety of fresh vegetables, which add a lot of sweetness and nutrition to this dish.
