Explore the charming streets filled with traditional shops and cafes, and immerse yourself in the rich history and culture of the city.

Day 4: A visit to Kamakura for a day

Start your Kamakura excursion by commencing your day at the revered Tsurugaoka Hachimangu Shrine, an exquisite and historically significant Shinto shrine that epitomizes Kamakura’s allure. Take a leisurely amble through the striking red torii gates and traverse the enchanting premises, including the main hall and the renowned wooden bridge. Afterwards, venture to the awe-inspiring Daibutsu, the Great Buddha of Kamakura, an imposing bronze statue that reaches an impressive height of over 13 meters. Be awestruck by the magnificence of this iconic emblem of Kamakura’s rich cultural heritage and set aside time to explore the adjacent park area.

Day 5-7: 3 Days (and perhaps 2 more) in Kyoto

Day 1

Commence your Kyoto adventure by visiting the iconic Kiyomizu-dera Temple. Take a bus to Gojozaka and ascend the hill leading to the temple. While it’s a must-see, be prepared for a bit of walking. However, along the way, you’ll encounter various shops offering Kyoto souvenirs and food stalls serving local delicacies to keep you engaged. Upon reaching Kiyomizu-dera Temple, enjoy the stunning view, especially enchanting during the autumn season when the historic hillside architecture harmonizes with fall foliage. During your descent, don’t miss the opportunity to explore Ninnen-zaka and Sannen-zaka, picturesque hills adorned with charming shops that embody Kyoto’s essence. After immersing yourself in Kiyomizu-dera and its surroundings, head to Sanjusangendo Temple, a distinctive attraction housing 1001 statues of Kannon, a sight unlike any other. Nearby, the Kyoto National Museum preserves historical treasures from Kyoto’s era as an imperial capital, offering valuable insights into the city’s rich history. Wrap up your day by taking a bus to Yasaka Temple, renowned for hosting the Gion Matsuri festival. Following this, stroll across the bridge above the Kamogawa River, savoring the view of the serene river lined with restaurants featuring traditional architecture. You can even choose to relax by the riverbank if you’re feeling tired. Then, make your way to Nishiki Market, a lively street boasting an array of offerings, including seafood and Japanese knives, along with regional specialties. It’s a hub of around a hundred restaurants and shops, making it an ideal spot for a meal, although it tends to get crowded. Finally, visit the Fushimi Inari Taisha Shrine, celebrated for its countless bright orange torii gates. To reach it, hop on the Keihan line to Fushimi-Inari station, but be prepared for potentially muddy paths, especially after rain. This shrine is a photographer’s paradise, so make sure to capture its beauty. Return to Kyoto for some well-deserved rest. If you’re seeking dining options, the Gion district offers a plethora of restaurants serving various cuisines. Alternatively, treat yourself to a traditional Kaiseki dinner, consisting of multiple small dishes followed by a main course. 

 

Day 2

Arashiyama and Kinkaku-ji: Embark on your second day with a trip to Arashiyama, a well-known destination famous for its enchanting bamboo forest. To avoid the crowds, arrive early. Arashiyama boasts not only natural beauty, including the Katsuragawa River and the Togetsukyo Bridge, but also souvenir shops selling local delights like Yatsuhashi sweets. Despite its popularity, this area offers a comprehensive experience with traditional souvenirs. Next on your itinerary is Tenryu-ji Temple, another prominent temple in Arashiyama. Consider exploring Atagi Nenbutsu-ji Temple, which features numerous charming statues, each with unique facial expressions. It’s a 40-minute walk or a 15-minute bus ride away, but do check the bus schedule to minimize waiting time. Following this, take a taxi to Ryuan-ji Temple, famous for its iconic rock and pebble garden, a renowned Zen garden. Slightly to the north, you’ll find Kinkaku-ji Temple, often referred to as the “Golden Pavilion.” It’s a 20-minute walk from Ryuan-ji or a 10-minute bus ride, though buses can get crowded during peak tourist seasons. Renowned Japanese writer Yukio Mishima used Kinkaku-ji as a motif in an intriguing story, making it a worthwhile visit. Proceed to Daitoku-ji Temple, known for the Japanese tea ceremony and the presentation of Zen culture, similar to Ryuan-ji. Since these Day 2 destinations are relatively distant from central Kyoto, return there to recharge for the next day. 

 

Day 3

Commence Day 3 in Kyoto with a visit to Ginkaku-ji Temple, often known as the “Silver Pavilion.” Despite not actually being silver, its name derives from the temple’s darker exterior. Despite its simplicity, it’s an essential architectural symbol of the Muromachi period, making it a recommended stop. Following your exploration of Ginkaku-ji, make your way to the Philosopher’s Path (Tetsugaku-no-Michi), a picturesque canal-side path. It’s particularly charming during cherry blossom season. At the path’s conclusion, you’ll encounter Zenrin-ji Temple, also known as Eikando Temple, a beautiful site, especially during autumn. It features a delightful pond and a traditional bridge, offering splendid photo opportunities. A bit further south, you’ll find Nanzen-ji Temple, another appealing temple surrounded by autumn foliage. Nanzen-ji boasts a rock garden akin to Ryuzen-ji Temple. Within its premises, you’ll come across a 19th-century aqueduct that once transported water from Lake Biwa in the neighboring Shiga Prefecture to Kyoto. Upon your return to the city center, consider visiting Heian Shrine, a spacious shrine adorned with a vibrant crimson facade, even though it lacks the historical significance of other locales. Upon reaching the city center, take a leisurely stroll as Kyoto’s charm lies in getting lost amid its beauty. 

 

Day 4 (Optional)

Commence Day 4 with a visit to the renowned Byōdō-in Temple, a UNESCO World Heritage Site celebrated for its elegant Heian-period design. The Phoenix Hall, mirrored in a serene pond, creates an enchanting scene that almost seems otherworldly. While Japan has many grand temples, Byōdō-in stands out due to its unique and grand facade, making it famous and a primary reason for some visitors to Uji. Following this, proceed to the iconic Uji Bridge, offering picturesque views of the Uji River surrounded by lush greenery. Pause for a moment to relish the scenery and capture memorable photos. Next, visit Mimuroto-ji Temple, renowned for its stunning hydrangea displays in early summer. Even during the fall, the temple’s exquisite surroundings make it a worthwhile visit. If time permits, consider exploring Shōzū-in Temple, a lesser-known gem celebrated for its exquisite garden and tranquil ambiance. It features a room with a heart-shaped opening in the wall, providing views of the temple garden, a feature particularly appealing to younger visitors. During the summer, the temple adorns itself with Suzu (Japanese Bells) hanging from the arches, adding to its picturesque allure. Note that reaching Shōzū-in may require a 30-minute taxi ride due to its somewhat remote location. Alternatively, if you prefer a more relaxed afternoon, Uji is renowned for its Matcha culture. Explore one of Uji’s traditional teahouses to partake in the local Matcha experience, savoring a cup of Matcha tea paired with authentic sweets distinct from those in the Western world. 

 

Day 5 (Optional)

Consider a brief excursion to Kibune Shrine and Kurayama for a delightful hiking experience. The hike is relatively gentle and not too distant, with both locations situated in close proximity. However, if you find the city center captivating, it might be more enjoyable to spend your time there, as traveling to Kibune and Kurayama would consume a significant amount of time. If you decide to embark on this optional adventure, begin your day by heading to Kibune Shrine and Kurayama. Kibune Shrine is known for its serene and spiritual ambiance, surrounded by lush greenery. Enjoy a peaceful hike in the Kurayama area, offering scenic views and a chance to connect with nature. The proximity of these locations makes them ideal for a day trip. These optional activities provide a pleasant escape from the city, but if you have a strong affinity for Kyoto’s urban charm, spending more time exploring its streets and hidden gems might be a rewarding alternative.

Day 8-9: 2 Days in Osaka

Day 1 

Commence your Osaka exploration with a delightful trip to Shinsaibashi, an animated shopping district famed for its upscale boutiques, department stores, and charming shops. Take a leisurely stroll along Shinsaibashi-suji Shopping Street and indulge in some window shopping. Move on to the vibrant district of Dotonbori, where dazzling billboards and delectable street treats like takoyaki and okonomiyaki await. Don’t miss the opportunity to snap a memorable photo with the Glico Running Man sign, symbolizing Osaka’s vibrant spirit. In the afternoon, uncover history at the ancient Shitennoji Temple, founded in 593 and steeped in tradition. Afterward, immerse yourself in the nostalgic atmosphere of Shinsekai, home to the towering Tsutenkaku. Treat your taste buds to kushikatsu or taiyaki at local eateries and soak in the retro charm. As night descends, experience the vivacious nightlife of Namba, where a plethora of restaurants, bars, and entertainment venues beckon, offering a taste of Osaka’s lively after-dark scene. 

 

Day 2

Embark on the second day by visiting the majestic Osaka Castle, an iconic historical landmark providing sweeping views from its main keep. Explore the castle grounds, delve into its museum, and, during cherry blossom season, savor the enchanting beauty of Osaka Castle Park. Continue your adventure to the bustling Tenmangu district, where the lively Tenma Market awaits, brimming with fresh produce, local snacks, and traditional goods. Relish Osaka’s famous street food and immerse yourself in the vibrant ambiance. Journey to Umeda, a dynamic shopping and entertainment hub. Discover the underground shopping malls like Hep Five and Grand Front Osaka, offering an array of shops and dining experiences. For breathtaking vistas of Osaka, consider ascending to the Umeda Sky Building’s observatory deck on the 39th and 40th floors. In the afternoon, head to the Tempozan area by the sea. Explore the renowned Kaiyukan aquarium or relish picturesque city and bay views from the ferris wheel. If time permits, consider a visit to the Expo ’70 Commemorative Park, featuring serene gardens, a traditional Japanese Garden, and the awe-inspiring Tower of the Sun, a masterpiece by the acclaimed artist Taro Okamoto.

Day 10-11: 2 Day trip to Nara

Day 1

Morning: Initiate your day with a visit to Todai-ji Temple (東大寺), a prestigious UNESCO World Heritage site that houses the Great Buddha (大仏), one of Japan’s largest bronze statues. This temple is an absolute must-visit during your stay. The Shosoin, an integral part of the temple, is renowned for its distinctive azekura-style (raised floor) architecture, designed to deter animals and preserve treasures from the 8th century when Nara served as Japan’s capital. Nara boasts numerous magnificent temples for this historical reason. Admire the grand architecture and the serene atmosphere of this ancient temple, conveniently situated within Nara Park (奈良公園), an extensive park known for its freely roaming deer. Take full advantage of the opportunity to interact with these gentle creatures and offer them special deer crackers available for purchase within the park. However, exercise caution and maintain a safe distance, especially during mating season, as some deer can exhibit aggressive behavior. Continue your journey southeast to explore Kasuga Taisha Shrine (春日大社), renowned for its striking vermilion-colored structures and the numerous stone lanterns that line the pathways. Enjoy a leisurely stroll along the forested trails, immerse yourself in the tranquility of the shrine, and explore one of the many temples and shrines nestled among cherry trees. Also, don’t forget to visit the Nara National Museum (奈良国立博物館), where you can admire ancient Japanese artifacts and statues. Afterward, make your way to the city center. Kofuku-ji, another renowned temple and UNESCO World Heritage site, was once considered one of the city’s most influential temples. The primary facade and pagodas are particularly remarkable, so be sure to include it in your itinerary. Conclude your day by meandering through Nara City Center. Wander through charming streets lined with traditional machiya (wooden townhouses) and indulge in local Nara specialties such as kakinoha-zushi (sushi wrapped in persimmon leaves). 

 

Day 2

In the morning, embark on your day with a visit to Toshodai-ji Temple (唐招提寺), a prestigious UNESCO World Heritage site and one of Nara’s most significant temples, situated to the southwest of the city center. Marvel at the exquisite architecture, tranquil gardens, and ancient Buddhist artifacts. Continue a bit further south to explore Yakushi-ji Temple (薬師寺), another UNESCO World Heritage site. Immerse yourself in the serene ambiance of this ancient temple, celebrated for its splendid pagoda and picturesque gardens. (As mentioned earlier, Nara is abundant with temples!) You also have the option to visit the remains of Heijo-kyo, a former capital of Japan centuries ago. Apart from the gate, there isn’t much to see, so you can choose to skip it if you prefer. Beyond the destinations we’ve outlined, Nara offers numerous lesser-known yet captivating places to discover, ensuring you have a delightful time in Nara!

Day 12-13: 2 Days in Hiroshima

Day 1

Commence your day with a visit to the iconic Atomic Bomb Dome (原爆ドーム) and the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum (広島平和資料館). These landmarks are among Hiroshima’s most famous attractions and are certainly worth exploring. Much like Nagasaki, Hiroshima is home to a museum dedicated to the bombing, providing a profound perspective on the horrors of war and the deep impact on ordinary citizens. Considering the moving experience offered by the museum, it might be wise to start there before heading to the Atomic Bomb Dome to fully grasp the events that transpired less than a century ago. Afterward, venture northeast to explore Hiroshima Castle (広島城). Immerse yourself in the castle’s grounds and take in panoramic city views from the observation deck. Notably, Hiroshima Castle stands out with its relatively darker facade compared to structures like Himeji Castle. It also radiates captivating beauty when illuminated, making an evening visit a viable option if your schedule allows. If hunger strikes, make your way to the bustling Hon-dori Shotengai Shopping Arcade (本通り商店街), a vibrant district offering a diverse array of culinary delights, from delectable desserts to hearty meals. In Hiroshima, the standout local dish is Okonomiyaki, a savory Japanese pancake prepared on a hot steel plate. The name Okonomiyaki means “cooked how you like it,” granting you the freedom to choose your preferred toppings. Trying this dish is highly recommended. If you have some spare time, consider a visit to Shukkei-en Garden (縮景園), a picturesque Japanese garden. Alternatively, if you prefer to soak in the atmosphere of Hiroshima at a leisurely pace, take a leisurely walk through the city’s streets. 

 

Day 2

Embark on your second day by making your way to Miyajima. The ferry terminal where you’ll catch the ferry to Miyajima is approximately a 30-minute train ride from Hiroshima station. Upon reaching the ferry terminal, secure your tickets for the ferry ride. Once you arrive on the island, proceed toward the main shrine and the iconic shrine gate partially submerged in the water. Along this route, you’ll encounter numerous enticing food stalls, each offering delectable treats. Given limited stomach capacity, exercise discretion in your culinary choices. Hiroshima is celebrated for its oysters, making them a must-try delicacy. For those not keen on raw oysters, there are grilled alternatives available. After a brief walk, you’ll arrive at the primary attraction, Itsukushima-jinja Shrine (厳島神社). Its intriguing aspect lies in its tide-dependent positioning, causing it to seemingly float in water or stand on land supported by columns, depending on the time of day. The island is also home to several other temples, including Daisho-in Temple (大聖院), perched atop a hill overlooking the bay and Itsukushima-jinja Shrine. The view from this vantage point is truly breathtaking, so if you plan a visit to Miyajima, consider including Daisho-in Temple in your itinerary. Keep in mind the island’s population of numerous deer, which adds to its charm, but exercise caution to avoid disturbing them by getting too close.

Day 14: A Day (or two) in Beppu in Oita Prefecture

Day 1

Begin your first day by visiting the famous Hells of Beppu (地獄巡り). Beppu is renowned for its hot spring resorts, known for their active geothermal activity. These ‘Hells’ consist of seven distinct hot springs, each with unique features and their peculiar, intriguing names. Umi Jigoku (海地獄) is known for its vibrant blue color, Chinoike Jigoku (血の池地獄) resembles a sea of blood and is red, while Shiraike Jigoku translates to ‘white pond hell’ and is naturally white. Oniishibozu Jigoku is a collection of small ponds with bubbling white mud, Kamado Jigoku features various ponds with different colors like green and blue, Oniyama Jigoku, despite its name, emits a significant amount of steam, and Tatsumaki Jigoku translates to tornado but is essentially a stream of hot water flowing from a rock surface like a waterfall. If you’re short on time, you may consider skipping the last two locations and spending more time exploring the rest. These attractions are about 20 minutes away from Beppu Station by public transport. While your ticket covers all seven sites, keep in mind that they are spread out, so visiting all might take around 2 to 3 hours. After your tour of the hells, don’t miss the opportunity to visit the Yukemuri Observatory (湯けむり展望台), which offers a fantastic view of the cityscape and the steam rising from these hot springs. If you’re interested in dining or taking a quick dip in an onsen, you’ll find numerous options in the vicinity, such as Hyoutan Onsen (ひょうたん温泉). Additionally, there are public foot baths where you can soak your feet in warm water to rejuvenate them after all the walking. If you have a sweet tooth, consider trying the custard pudding made using the steam from the hells, which gives it a rich and smoky flavor. After your visit, head back to your Ryokan to relax, savor the delicious food that will be served, and soak in an onsen. 

 

Day 2 (Optional) 

You can choose to start your second day by heading to the Beppu Station Market (べっぷ駅市場). This bustling market is a great place to discover local produce, crafts, and freshly prepared snacks. Take your time exploring the stalls and perhaps enjoy a quick snack. Next, head south to the nostalgic Takegawara Koji Arcade (竹瓦小路). This picturesque lane is filled with shops and bars that evoke memories of the Showa period, which was two emperors ago in Japanese history. If you enjoy nightlife and drinking, it might be worth considering a visit in the evening, although it could be a bit small and frequented by locals, which might feel a bit intimidating to some. Afterward, take a bus north for approximately 20 minutes to reach the Beppu Beach Sand Bath (別府海浜砂湯). Thanks to the area’s active geothermal activity, you can enjoy a therapeutic experience by burying yourself in naturally heated sand. Plus, it’s located by the sea, providing a pleasant view to enhance your experience.
