One of Kyoto's representative plum blossom spots! 
In the spring on the hills of the shrine grounds, the most spectacular sight is the sight of all 150 weeping plum trees in full bloom with all the colors and red and white flowers. You can also enjoy the carpet of petals when they start to fall. This is also a famous spot for camellias, with 150 varieties and about 400 camellias blooming one after another. 
The camellias fall on the moss around February and become falling camellias. Then, you can see the superb view of weeping plums and falling camellias.

Book now for tomorrow

D29***94

Book tickets early. Otherwise seat allocated (odd number) may not give you good views as compared to even number seat. Cannot see river, unless you stand up. There will be staff asking if you will like to take and buy a photograph for souvenir. Not all visitors are approached. So if you want photos, do look out for them.

There are always many people, so it is necessary to go early in the morning. Living in Park Hyatt may have local advantages. You can walk there. You may wish to take a taxi. You can have the energy to climb for two or three years. Conan punches the shoulder, so you can wait a while to pay attention to the beauty of the mountain, and the base of the wooden structure.

When you get out of JR minari Station, the entrance to the shrine opens up amazingly. There are many foreign tourists and middle and high school students even on weekdays. It is cute to see middle school students wearing school uniforms taking group photos under the guidance of their teachers. Contrary to what I thought, it takes quite a long time to look around everywhere in this attraction. It is said that it takes two to three hours to reach the top of the mountain. It seems like quite interesting to climb to the top along the endless red pillars, but I had to come back, vowing to come next. There are fox symbols and figures everywhere. It is so cute to see the fox woodblock hanging from it, and I wonder what the wishes people wrote down. There are signs saying, &quot;This is a prayer hall, please use it with a calm mind.&quot; This seems to be because people are immersed in taking pictures in cute and attractive spaces. People are showing off with excitement. I love this unique space.

Best Things to Do

Randomstuffsg

Gion is one of Kyoto&rsquo;s most enchanting districts, where old Japan comes alive through preserved wooden machiya houses, quiet tea rooms, and the occasional sight of a geisha hurrying down lantern-lit streets. It&rsquo;s beautiful both day and night, offering a perfect blend of culture, tradition, and timeless charm.

Stunning natural beauty, definitely a must visit if in Kyoto. Convenient to get to, I took a bus there and train back to hotel. Definitely set aside a good few hours, beautiful scenery overlooking the riverside and lake. Many shops and restaurants in the village. Definitely take the romantic train, stunning views!
