見どころ
Japan’s ancient capital echoes with the footsteps of the samurai, geisha, and kabuki performers who walked these cobblestone streets centuries ago. On this walking tour of Kyoto, you’ll stroll along the Kamo River to hear about the heart-stopping events that happened on its shores. Starting at the historic Shijo Bridge, which has watched over Japan’s ancient capital since the Shogun era, you’ll discover how bridges evolved from footpaths to modern transport routes. You’ll hear tales of intrigue from the Gion District’s teahouses, including a famous Winter revenge plot. As you make your way along the river and back towards the tour’s starting point, you’ll follow in the footsteps of pilgrims who walked from Edo (now Tokyo) to Kyoto, bringing rice crackers with them. You’ll also walk along the famous Shijo street toward Yasaka Jinga, where the pilgrims would end their 12-day journey. By the end of this tour, you’ll have enriched your knowledge of Kyoto’s history.

About 京都
千年以上にわたり日本の都だった京都は、寺院、庭園、木造の町家、洗練された伝統が息づく街です。
この街には日本で最も大切にされている名所の多くがあります。伏見稲荷大社の数千基の朱色の鳥居は森の山を登り、金閣寺は池の上で輝き、清水寺の木造の舞台は街を見下ろす山腹に突き出しています。龍安寺の石庭と苔むした銀閣寺の庭は、静かな思索を誘います。
Top-ranked sights in 京都: Fushimi Inari Shrine (Fushimi Inari Taisha), Kinkaku-ji (Golden Pavilion), Kiyomizu-dera Temple.
