Itinerary
1
Heian Shrine
This is the site of an ancient government office, famous for the largest torii gate in Kyoto. Ride your bike under the gate.
5 minutes
2
Konkai Komyoji Temple
This vast temple is one of Kyoto's best sunset spots. The sound of the bells ringing at 6pm is also beautiful.
15 minutes
3
Chion-in Temple
Kyoto has several large temples that house towns inside, and their interiors are solemnly lit up. It's too far to walk there, and taxis can't get there, so it's an experience that can only be had by bicycle.
4
Hokan-ji Temple
We will climb to a special spot for viewing Kyoto's night views that would be difficult to reach without a local guide. Since it is an E-Bike, it is easy even for beginners.
5 minutes
5
Nanzen-ji Temple
This is a wonderful temple with a beautiful garden and a huge gate. We will cycle through the temple.
5 minutes
6
Gion
The most beautiful part of Gion at night is the willow-lined riverside. You can feel the atmosphere of the night town from hundreds of years ago.
10 minutes
7
Yasaka Shrine
Unlike during the day, the shrine is not crowded and is very quiet and mysterious. At night, it is lit up and is very beautiful.
10 minutes
8
Sannenzaka Ninenzaka
We rode bike up Ninenzaka and Sannenzaka. When there were people around, We got off and pushed my bike for safety. There are a lot of people during the day, but at night it's very mysterious.
This area is far from the station and taxis cannot get there, so unless you're staying nearby the only way to get there is by bicycle.
10 minutes
9
Pontocho
This is Kyoto's deepest and largest night restaurant district. You can also leave here.
