Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: Nagaoka Tenmangu, 2-15-13 Tenjin, Nagaokakyo 617-0824 Kyoto Prefecture
On the western edge of Kyoto, Nagaoka Tenmangu Shrine is one of the best kept secrets of Kyoto. With visitors yet to discover this beautiful shrine, have a leisurely stroll around the "Garden of Fall Foliage".
Duration: 25 minutes
Stop At: Komyo-ji Temple, 584 Uraderamachidori Takoyakushi Agaru Uraderacho, Nakagyo-ku, Kyoto 604-8041 Kyoto Prefecture
Known for its beautiful red colored maple trees that surround the approach leading to the Main Hall and Amida Hall.
Duration: 50 minutes
Stop At: Tofuku-ji Temple, 15-778 Hommachi, Higashiyama, Kyoto 605-0981 Kyoto Prefecture
One of the more famous autumn leaves viewing spots. The Tsutenkyo Bridge is the most popular part of the temple which boasts wonderful views of the maple trees on either side of the valley.
Duration: 1 hour
Stop At: Nanzen-ji Temple, 86 Nanzenji Fukuchicho, Sakyo-ku, Kyoto 606-8435 Kyoto Prefecture
Nanzenji Temple is a spacious temple complex known for the odd sight of an aqueduct passing through its grounds.
Duration: 30 minutes
Stop At: Philosopher's Path (Tetsugaku no michi), Shishigatani Honenin Nishimachi, Sakyo Ward, Kyoto, 606-8427, Japan
A pretty stone path along a canal lined with trees in all their autumn glory. The leaves reflect off the water's surface and those that have fallen on the path create a colorful 'carpet'. Since Nanzenji Temple and The Philosopher's Path are connected, you will spend a combined time of an hour at both spots.
Duration: 30 minutes
Stop At: Arashiyama, Togetsukyo, Saga, Ukyo-ku, Kyoto 616-8383 Kyoto Prefecture
One of the most popular districts of Kyoto. In mid to late November, the surrounding mountains and trees around the area burst into reds, yellows and golds so beautiful that Arashiyama is known nationwide as a prime viewing spot. Enjoy the leaves from two different angles: via the streets as you explore on foot for half an hour and then via the river on a boat cruise for another 30 minutes.
