Itinerary
Kinkakuji, also known as the Golden Pavilion, is one of Kyoto’s most iconic landmarks. This Zen Buddhist temple is famous for its top two floors, which are completely covered in gold leaf, reflecting beautifully in the surrounding pond and creating a stunning, picture-perfect scene. Originally built in 1397 as a retirement villa for a shogun, it was later converted into a temple. The peaceful garden and mirror-like pond enhance the elegance of the structure, making Kinkakuji a must-visit destination for anyone exploring Kyoto.
Nishiki Market is a lively, narrow shopping street in the heart of Kyoto, known as “Kyoto’s Kitchen.” Stretching about 400 meters, it is lined with over 100 shops and stalls offering a wide variety of local foods, fresh produce, street snacks, and traditional goods. From pickles and matcha sweets to fresh seafood and kitchenware, Nishiki Market is the perfect place to experience Kyoto’s culinary culture. It’s a great spot to sample local delicacies, meet friendly vendors, and discover unique souvenirs in an authentic atmosphere.

About Kobe
Kobe is a port city on Osaka Bay, set between the sea and the Rokko mountains, known for its beef, foreign-style hillside houses and hot springs.
Kobe is a long, narrow city squeezed between Osaka Bay and the Rokko Mountains, which rise steeply behind it. It opened as a treaty port in 1868, and its foreign merchants left a hillside district, Kitano, of European-style mansions, churches and cafés. Nankinmachi is a compact Chinatown. At the harbour, the red Port Tower and the Meriken Park waterfront look out over the bay.
Top-ranked sights in Kobe: Kobe Harborland, Kobe Port Tower, Kobe Maritime Museum.
