Itinerary (Part 1)

Day 1: After landing, check in at the hotel. For dinner, head to Nishiki Market to enjoy unlimited sashimi and sea urchin. Japanese sashimi is truly delicious! Before returning to the hotel, take a stroll through the underground shopping street and grab some dessert. Day 2: Depart for Arashiyama. If you're only traveling one station, it's not recommended to take the small train; walking along the path will lead you to Ryōan-ji Temple. After exploring, enjoy some dessert. For lunch, dine at Nikuzushi, which is the top-rated meal of the entire trip! 🤩 End the day with a visit to Mikane Shrine, and for dinner, have sukiyaki near Kyoto Tower. 👍🏻 Day 3: Have lunch at Ichiran Ramen, then visit Kinkaku-ji Temple. While walking, stop by the nearby Tenmangu Shrine. Finally, head up Kyoto Tower, though unfortunately, the cloudy weather that day obscured the sunset view. 😞 🏨 Accommodation Recommendation: Ala Hotel (Highly cost-effective, and the hotel even has a bathhouse 👍🏻. However, it's a nude bath, so those with tattoos are not allowed.) 🍴 Food Recommendation: Nikuzushi (Absolutely amazing! The wagyu beef melts in your mouth, and the sea urchin and salmon roe are incredibly delicious. You can even make ochazuke rice here. 👍🏻) 📌 Useful Tips: It's highly recommended to book reservations for all restaurants in advance!
