Top 13 Things to Do in Kyoto, Japan

Here are my Top 13 Things to do in Kyoto, Japan! Kyoto is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Japan with countless iconic attractions such as the Fushimi Inari Torii Gates, Kiyomizudera Temple, the Sagano Bamboo Grove in Arashiyama, geisha in Gion, the Golden Pavilion Kinkakuji, and much more. It's always the place most closely associated with traditional Japanese culture, ancient temples, other worldly shrines and more.

Although this is a list of 13 things, you will find that there is actually much more included such as hidden gems, recommendations, and some potential drawbacks for different activities. Kyoto is incredibly dense with magical neighborhoods, parks, gardens, hikes, and more, so it goes without saying that there is much more to do here than I covered in this video. I have visited Kyoto 3 times so far, and there is still many things that I want to check out. Let me know your thoughts in the comments below!
