– Itinerary Introduction –

・Sagano Train is a popular sightseeing train designated by Arashiyama! You can enjoy its unique scenery in spring, summer, autumn and winter! During the 25-minute journey, the train will slowly take you through the valley, allowing you to take in the beautiful scenery on both sides of the Hozu Gorge. The train's carriages and seat designs exude a nostalgic atmosphere. Walking into the mountains along the sightseeing track rebuilt from the abandoned San'in Line, it feels like time has gone back. After getting off the train, you may want to take a photo with the retired but still-living train!

・Kiyomizu-dera Temple (World Cultural Heritage)
There is a Japanese saying "jump off the Kiyomizu stage", which means to make up one's mind. This magnificent stage, which stands on a steep cliff, was built without a single nail and is made up of 139 large logs. From here, you can have a panoramic view of the beautiful streets of Kyoto. Down the stone steps is Otowa Falls, where the spring water is divided into three parts. It is said that drinking the spring water will bring you "knowledge, love, and longevity". Especially in the spring when the cherry blossoms are in full bloom and in the autumn when the maples are bright red, there is an endless stream of tourists from all over the world.

・Fushimi Inari Taisha Shrine is the filming location of the movie Memoirs of a Geisha. It is famous for its thousands of vermilion torii gates, which form a red corridor. Legend has it that the god of agriculture guards this place, protecting the local people's harvest, business prosperity, traffic safety, etc., and foxes are regarded as his messengers. Foxes have been sacred animals since ancient times, and they hunt insects and birds in the fields, which is why grains can be cultivated.
