Our Favourites

This one-day tour of the two ancient cities of Kyoto and Uji is super exciting!

The first stop is Kinkakuji Temple. This temple decorated with gold foil is reflected in the mirror lake, shining brightly, and people can't help but sigh at the magnificence of "Ikkyu's" residence.

Then we came to Kiyomizu Temple, where you can appreciate the ancient buildings, and the scenery of each season has its own charm, which is super beautiful for taking pictures. Strolling along the Nisanjozaka, people are in the painting, and it is easy to take Japanese blockbusters. Walk into the Kyoto Starbucks specialty concept store and experience the unique Japanese coffee atmosphere. Make a wish to the colorful balls at the Yasaka Koshin Hall of Kongoji Temple and experience the special prayer culture.

Finally, we came to Uji, which is a famous matcha hometown and a famous historical city. You can stroll along the matcha street to taste the authentic matcha, or you can go to the Tale of Genji Museum to learn about the classics of Japanese history.

In Uji, we recommend a tour route (we recommend you choose one of the tours)

Recommendation 1: Matcha Street in Omotesando, Byodoin

Recommendation 2: The Tale of Genji Museum
