I’ll give you all the information you need to discover the other side of Kyoto.

1:01 I believe that's one of the Three Views of Japan.

Edit: One spot in Kyoto that I loved, but didn't see a single other tourist was Honnō-ji Temple. It's a recreation of course since the original burned down but if you've ever heard of the famous daimyō Oda Nobunaga it's definitely worth visiting (bonus points it's in a good location, right near the station.) Don't forget to visit the little museum and even if you don't speak Japanese they have digital translation guides giving you enormous amounts of information about every relic.

The view over Amanohashidate is spectacular and it's a fantastic bike hire ride across the peninsula between the 2 ropeways on either side. Back during our 2017 visit complementary tourist bicycles were available at the arrival bus stop in Ine Bay village. Only wish we had noticed them before walking the entire village 😏 keep them in mind 🚲. We tried to organise a stay in one of the Funaya but found it quite difficult to be accommodated being that we didn't speak Japanese. Many of the Funaya owners are traditional folk unsure they can give the best of service to international visitors who don't speak Japanese. Perhaps there's more confident hosts these days, we would love to go back and stay, it's a unique and picturesque Bay.

Heading back to Tokyo in March 2024 staying this time in Sugamo/Otsuka - 9th trip to japan !

Another great video Nathan 👏

[lannifincoris]

Thanks for this great tipps! 👍

Well, I'd heard of these places from other member of this channel doing some vlogs from these locations. I will say that this video gave me a different perspective on what to do and how it could be done. I like being in the country and taking my time in smaller locations especially if they are picturesque and scenic, which this area definitely is. So, as you continually do another couple of locations to add to my list of places I've got to see and experience in person. 🌊You keep making me search for emojis, but at least now I'm finding some.

[Hestiabelle]

Currently planning my Kyoto Itinerary and this help alot. Thank you 🌊

[laurielum]

Mahalo! A big help in planning my trip to that area.

[nyimaskholidya]

Thank you for informative vlog, waiting for more🌊🌊🌊🌊

[FollowTheSunAustralia]

🌊I really enjoyed this video I like that theme park especially, and hiring a bike

[fadhroslizr]

Hi bro, i really enjoy watching this. I will be visiting the Ine town next month and I am wondering, for the boat ferry do you recommend to go in the morning around 10am or after noon around 2pm ; for the best view?

[A-bphq]

did you go with the willer travel thing or by yourself? i missed this part

There's so many historic things to see in Kyoto, I think there's lots of things tourists never would never think to visit.
My first trip to Kyoto, I noticed on the map there was street named "Bojo Dori", so I went to visit, mostly to get a photo of a street sign with my screen name on it. Even though it was mostly residential, there were some points of interest.
Entered through the historic Shimabara gate, then visited the historic Sumiya Cultural Art Museum, which was very cool. Then passed by Wachigaiya, an old building from the entertainment district, which wasn't open to the public at the time. Further along was Mibu-dera Buddhist temple, a very cool place, with a tower with rings of more than 1000 Jizo and other statues. Further down was Motogion Nagi Jinja, a modest sized Shinto Shrine. Then we walked to the street car station and rode the street car. Didn't run into many people along the way since it's not really a tourist route. But this is just an example of how you can make your own tour in Kyoto.

[Archangelicajul]

Those 2 are already on my list for my next trip. I’ll be going to japan next week and I don’t think traveling there in winter is a good idea

[jeenacake]

Good video, will follow your itinerary.
Would like to know which shop did you rent for the bike?

[froglady]

I love Ine! Places like that are my idea of Japan ♥️🌊

[corgolyin]

I got the okay from my pet sitter to go back during the Sakura season and plan to explore more smaller towns than the bigger cities as I feel like I did enough Osaka, wouldn't mind visiting Kyoto again to do something I missed out on last go but probably won't stay in Tokyo again but would go just to say hello to Hachi again then be on my way. Odate however I would love to always visit each trip. I can't explain it but I fell in love in there as I've mentioned before if I moved to Japan I'd very much try to make sure I lived there or close by.

[LOMO]

Not sure if I missed it but what hotel did you stay at?

[mishainwonderland]

I want to visit Ine. As one of the country which driving lisence not accepted in Japan, i will have to plan really good 😅

[patrickgallagher]

🌊 Which month did you visit these areas? Obviously warmer time of year based on your clothes - and sweat on your face! lol I am thinking about an August visit as you told me there are more outside activities going on. Plus, from what I have researched, you can't climb Mt. Fuji in May. I live in south Florida so I am used to hot weather and am very active outdoors!

[roquejo]

ok, going to spend overnight there this coming Nov in a hotel near the train station..
