Beautiful place to see if you are in Kyoto! It was busy but not the worst. They also have lots of ramps and an elevator if you are a wheelchair user or are bringing your child in a stroller. Lots and lots of shops and food stalls! Great place to get souvenirs and also enjoy yourself and see a beautiful shrine! If you enjoy hiking it’s a great place to go as well, or you can turn around after the first leg of the Torii gates.

This might be Kyoto's most famous temple. I went in the evening on a Thursday night at the end of October, and it was still full of people. The temple is beautiful and its many gates are iconic. Since it is open 24 hours, I would recommend arriving as early as possible, if you intend to hike up (I have done it once and it is a very neat experience). If you go at night, you will have some cool photos and a different vibe, but maybe not the best hiking experience (though it is still possible a good experience). This is a best of the best cultural experience in my opinion, and I would highly recommend it (though everyone seems to be aware of that!).

I left the hotel to take an early morning train just to avoid the crowd. Alas, despite the morning shower, the crowd is still present during such early hour. The overcast sky is a stark contrast against the orange hued architecture here. Everyone had their umbrellas out which means navigating the narrow vermillion hued corridors was a challenge but nevertheless, I persisted. Taking a photo without anyone present is almost impossible but our commnunity is very cooperative and once we see someone taking a photo, we all stopped behind them and let them finish. I really love this vibe. Thanks to the weather, we left this place earlier than we wanted to but I do intend to return under better weather conditions.

Visiting Fushimi Inari Taisha at night was an unforgettable experience. We decided to go after dark, and it was absolutely breathtaking. The paths were quiet, the air cool, and the Senbon Torii illuminated in a soft, ethereal glow. With no crowds around, the atmosphere felt serene and almost sacred, allowing me to wander in silence and truly absorb the beauty of the shrine. It’s a completely different experience from visiting during the day. Peaceful, reflective, and deeply moving. If you have the chance, I highly recommend a night visit to appreciate the spiritual stillness of this incredible place.

Got here at 5:30pm right as the sun went down and seemed like majority of tourists had just left. The pathways with gates had lots of lights so getting around In the dark was no problem. Beautiful shrine and lots of cool statues. A few cats around which made the experience even better. You can likely spend 2 hours if you would like to hike to the top and back. We went maybe 1/3 of the way up and was satisfied. There's also a QR code for a free audio tour if you like.

We returned to Kyoto (3rd time) just to visit this magical place again. Absolutely breathtaking, serene walk with the option to go the full circuit (highly recommend! Approx 2 hours) or turn back at any number of junctures. One of the main draw cards for myself are the shrine cats at Kaji-tei teahouse on the way down from the mountain top (take the first route back down if you want to skip to the cats!). The owner is a cat lover and takes wonderful care of the cats - there is a shop where you can buy photos of the cats, gifts and other trinkets that support their costs. I always bring some cat treats for them to enjoy. Whilst some areas of Fushimi Inari can get quite crowded, we've found regardless of the time of day Kaji-tei area is pleasantly uncrowded. We've been at 7am, 8am, and 2pm. For the earlier times the shop hasn't been open, but the cats are around and it avoids the crowds at the entrance. Highly recommend the whole experience. Don't be deterred by the crowds - if you are going very early (6am) and the crowd will think out very quickly as you climb.

​Historical Significance: Established in 711 AD, it's a very old and important shrine. ​Iconic Torii Gates: The path lined with thousands of vibrant red torii gates is its most famous feature, creating a breathtaking and unique atmosphere. ​Family-Friendly: It's a great place for families, with children often enjoying the climb and the expansive grounds. ​Accessibility: The shrine offers free parking, and it is wheelchair accessible with accessible parking, entrances, and restrooms. ​Open 24 hours: You can visit Fushimi Inari Taisha at any time, making it a flexible destination for your Kyoto itinerary.

This is a great visitor experience from a large corporation. Definitely worth your time to learn a bit of history and the production process. You get to try 3 types of sake from a selection of about 10. You do have the option to purchase more tokens to try more. We just stuck with the basic three. Some of the staff speak English so nothing to be intimidated about if you don’t speak the language.

Fun and educational museum for sake! After paying the admission fee you get to keep a sake cup as a souvenir and use it for tasting at the end of the tour. Their gift shop has lots of different sake. A nice museum if you are in the area. It closes a bit early and it is based on time slots so don’t plan to go too late in the afternoon.

Great deal, 600 yen per person gets you a video on sake production, a walk through the museum and 3 tastes of your choice of sake with a sake glass. We booked a reservation in advance as time slots do fill up. Everyone watches the video first and then you move through 3 rooms of information at your own pace. There is free wifi and signs are in Japanese and English. You can also use QR codes for more info and additional languages. The final room is the same tasting, where they have 10 options to try and you get 3 coins. Additional coins are 100 yen. We tried 4. We stayed for about an hour and 15 minutes.

this is the most worth it museum i’ve been to so far! For only Y 600, you have the exhibit itself, a free sake glass, and 3 chances to taste test a sake of ur choosing! Or u can just exchange those 3 coins to a small sake bottle! Or if you’re short on coins then u can just buy 1 coin for Y 100. All in all, for Y 600 ticket, I brought home a sake glass & a small sake bottle!

It was shorter than we expected but worth going out of our way for. There are good English translations for the exhibits. By far the least expensive sake tasting we did, but it was a great price, and we got to sample a good selection. Most of the sake isn't unique to the location, but that's more of a plus since you can also buy it at other stores later (although they do have a shop where they sell all the sake available in the tasting).

If you’ve ever wanted a crash course in sake without the crash, get yourself to here in Kyoto. It costs you 600 yen — which in travel math is roughly the price of a coffee back home, but way more intoxicating (literally and spiritually). After entering what looks like a perfectly preserved Edo-period brewery meets samurai Airbnb, you’re greeted by a short but expertly made film. It’s the kind of video that makes you whisper, “Who edited this and how can I hire them to do my wedding slideshow?” Narrated in that gentle Japanese cadence that feels like a bow made of sound, it gives just enough context to make you feel worldly without frying your brain. The museum itself is self-guided — in other words, no one’s watching you awkwardly mispronounce “junmai daiginjo.” You’re free to wander among the barrels (which are roughly the size of a studio apartment in Tokyo), admire century-old tools, and nod sagely as if you understand how koji mold works. But let’s be honest — we’re here for the tasting. You’re handed a small, clear plastic square of a cup (yours to keep — mine’s now a desk ornament / emergency shot glass) and three tasting tokens. Think of them as Willy Wonka’s golden tickets for grown-ups who appreciate rice alcohol. The tasting bar offers a spread from dry, delicate sake that whispers “pair me with sashimi” to rich, fruity numbers that say “I’ll go with yakitori or your regrets.” But the star of the show for me? The Plum Wine — labeled as “Mindfully Brewed, Deliciously Sweet.” Which is basically what I hope they write on my tombstone. This plum wine doesn’t mess around. It’s full-bodied, unapologetically sweet, and dangerously drinkable. You taste it, smile, then wonder how many bottles you can fit in your suitcase without violating customs or physics. I left with one — then promptly shared it with locals at an izakaya that evening. Because nothing forges international friendship faster than a plum-scented buzz and broken English. Bonus points: The water fountain outside the tasting room is borderline divine. If reincarnation exists, I want to come back as a plum soaking in that water. If you’re even sake-curious, this museum is a must. Educational, low-key beautiful, and you leave tipsy, hydrated, and holding a cup you didn’t know you needed. Also: who knew 600 yen could buy knowledge, friendship, and a solid pre-lunch buzz? Rating: 5 out of 5 umeboshi. Would sip again.

If your looking to kill an hour this is a nice air conditioned reprieve. This is a "cute" little museum. You watch a video (in English) prior to walking through a museum that's more focused on the history of the company, than on sake itself. That's what we were hoping for. But the nice surprise is a souvenir sake glass and 3 tokens to try 3 of their 12 sakes offered. This was great cause I normally don't like Sake in the US, but loved some of these sakes.

November 2024: Blessedly peaceful and only few visitors on the weekday. The historic architecture can be appreciated by those who understand the intricate details, and the garden makes for a beautiful shot of the pagoda. Absolutely wonderful to see nature’s friends enjoying the surroundings too

I came here for the autumn night viewing last November and it was nothing short of spectacular. The entire place is strategically lit up in a way that accentuates the structures and surrounding landscape. The pagoda in particular looks amazing and there is a lake in the garden area that reflects the pagoda off its surface. When I went, some of the buildings were open so you could look at the statues inside. Admission was ~1000 Yen, if I recall correctly. I hadn't planned on coming here originally but am very glad I made the spontaneous decision to do so.

Me and my parents visited this place in the evening and the view was stunning! Although only a little red leaves when we were there, the layers of colour (green/ yellow/ brown/ red) mixed together in harmony. The temples and Buddha statues were breath taking as well! Highly recommended. If not because if the time constrain, I'd love to visit there in daytime too.

Absolutely spectacular! It was crowded and warm in September, as to be expected, so bring water, dress cool and arrive early! It’s stunning! The gardens and the grounds are serene and the pagoda is remarkable! Be respectful, as this is a holy place and people are there to pray at the temples.

The 2 huge main halls smell like ancient wood, very calming & zen… The garden is quite small, pond water is kinda dirty, but got a big grey bird & nice photo views of the pagoda. Good to visit for once.

To-ji Temple surprised us with how tranquil and serene this place was. It was also neat to visit this temple’s pagoda, the tallest wooden structure in all of Japan. We lucked out because the pagoda happened to be open, a rare occurrence usually only reserved for special occasions. The temple gardens were lush and calming, especially by the pond. Inside the temple itself stood massive sculptures that make us feel so small, though no pictures were allowed inside. Time wise we spent about an hour and a half to two hours here comfortably. We’d love to come back here someday. Make sure not to miss this wonderful place!

I love the Zen feel of this place, and i was even more excited to be able to go inside the temple and swe all the statues. I wish you could take photos inside.... it was a pretty amazing thing to see. If you want to see a beautiful garden and some amazing historical buildings, this is a great place to stop. There is a small cover charge. And you might want to read up on the rules and what's respectful to the temple before you go.

A peaceful and impressive temple just a short walk from Kyoto Station. The wooden structures are enormous and beautifully detailed, with a calm atmosphere inside the grounds. Entry was free and there was no wait to enter, even on a weekday. Lovely place to take a quiet break from the busy city, and easy to visit if you’re staying nearby. Definitely worth a stop.

Stopped here by accident during my walk through Kyoto and I believe more travel guide books and sites should include this temple. It’s beautiful, huge and very well kept (you can walk, shoes off, through most of the temple and photos are allowed if no service or ceremony is going on). It’s just by the Kyoto Tower, so I would advise you to visit both. Highly recommended!

Pristine and cultural temple that is very big and worth seeing. Be sure to be respectful of the culture there because we had to take off our shoes when walking in the wood at the steps to the building. The whole area is very nice and open and pretty but be careful about walking to places that you may not be allowed to go. And I’m pretty sure photos are allowed within most of the temple walls. I was very pleased with this experience and I recommend.

I decided to walk to this temple early in the morning.The entrance is free.The temple is pretty impressive and It felt very peaceful inside.You can walk around and look at the beautiful artifacts which all have a brief explanation next to it and watch the people do their morning prayers.Great way to start the day.

We have been to about a dozen temples so far in our time here and this one is very cool! The displays of the old rope used and the fact it was much quieter than other temples made this a really cool place!

A beautiful and incredibly impressive place. You will need to take your shoes of to enter the buildings. There are places to stop and sit and also toilets and vending machines. There are fish in the pond around the temple and if you go across the road you and walk about 5min you will find a beautiful garden to visit

A beautiful temple which is best visited during a service or during the rain for a nice change of aesthetic and if you have already visited many temples. As with most major attractions I recommend aiming for off peak. Rainy days are great, early morning, of simply off-peak from things like golden week etc. For such a large temple, because it is active, there isn't much 'to-do' but do have a seat during a service or just sit quietly in the temple and have a moment to soak it all in.

Didn't go inside Yasaka Pagoda but just seeing it from the streets was already a treat. The five-storied pagoda has such a classic Kyoto vibe. Nearby I wandered through the charming slopes of Ninenzaka and Sannenzaka. The best time to appreciate the pagoda is early in the morning around 6 am when there are no crowds and you can really take in the scene peacefully.

This temple area is frequented by tourists, as it is the most familiar spot in old Kyoto. I would recommend that you go and take your beautiful pictures, and then spend some time in the temple. It really is wonderful.

Amazing structure tucked tightly in the back streets of Kyoto. Many cool attractions and shops nearby so you could make a day of walking around through all the alleyway shops and seeing the near by historical landmarks. Many cool things to see. This pagoda was a very cool structure but that’s all it is you cannot approach the structure and all photos must be taken over the surrounding walls so hard to find a good angle. I suggest walking the surrounding streets some of the alleyways to the south allow for a good angle to capture the amazement of the pagoda in the backdrop.

Very Beautiful tourist attraction. Out stay was 50mtrs from this place. So had opportunity to visit both during evening and daytime. Uphill walkings will give best views of the shrine. Past that is a thriving local market where u can have some local japanese food and buy gifts

We didn't go inside but had a wonderful time walking around. It was rainy, (still incredibly crowded!) humid, but I'm still glad we made the trip. It was neat to see in person. Lots of places for drinks, snacks, and gifts around and there are spots in the area away from the hordes. Photography by Jason Taylor (Except for the picture of the crow that I took!)

This review is for the Pagoda only. Not the neighborhood. Not the temple. Not the shops, cafes, and restaurants. I give the beauty of the view five stars. It’s iconic (for real…not in the Paris H way) and culturally important in Kyoto, Japan. If you’re visiting Kyoto, and this is not on your list of places to see, you may want to reconsider. Here’s my personal recommendation, to avoid the worst crowd you’ve ever imagined…ever seen on YouTube! One can see the Pagoda from many places in the city, off in the distance. It sits high up on a hill. It’s a climb, worse for some than others, but have some water with you regardless of your fitness level. I believe the day that I went here by foot, we walked 18 miles. So you can see this in the distance, and just pick the small side streets around it and wind your way up. I would avoid peak hours, which could really be anything I guess. May be a late night walk? Or super early in the morning as well. These would be great times for photography and avoiding crowds. Enjoy Kyoto!!

We went in the evening to see the temple from the viewing point. Still a small crowd but manageable compared to other temples in Kyoto. There are various streets nearby with great views. Definitely worth a visit.

This is architecturally my favourite temple in Kyoto. It really showcases the elements of traditional Japanese architecture with beautiful landscaping. It seems pretty popular so it probably gets crowded but it was decently empty when I went on Sunday morning. I went on a moody rainy day and I enjoyed sitting on the engawa overlooking the dry gardens. The courtyard moss garden is also a beauty to behold but sitting on the tatami is unfortunately forbidden.

Beautiful. The ticket price is a bit stiff comparing to other temples in Japan, however, this temple deserves it. I can spend hours to soak my soul in the calmness of these gardens. There are certain rules that you have follow here to keep the quiet & enjoyable moments with other guests.

Had the good fortune of stopping here at 1630 on a weekday in November. Streets in area were a mad house, but very few people on grounds and inside. Walking around the free outside area just ok. Well worth the small entry fee. Not a huge space but the zen garden was great (noting very few people on my visit and that will make a difference). Dragons design on ceiling was amazing and most people entered with a gasp. Limited photos, no flash, no video. No shoes once inside.

800yen entry. Worth every bit! The temple takes you out of the sun, great place to get you out of the direct heat. (Although it isn't air conditioned). The temple is in pristine condition and it is mind blowing how beautiful the structure and architecture is. Super worth it and very beautiful.

Was here in July recently. Never been here although have been to Kyoto a couple of times previously. Walked through here for a quick look on the way to Kiyomizu-dera temple. Nice, quiet place with large compound but didn't enter the main temple though.

The ground of the Kenninji was so zen, couple with the drizzle make it so much more tranquil. Caught us by surprise that drawing of the dragon was so surreal. It make all the walkings around Kyoto so worth it. We make it our last stop of the day so that we can rest and enjoy the bustling Kyoto’s main street.

is an absolute must when visiting the Gion district. The twin dragons on the ceiling are truly stunning, and the entire temple complex is spectacular and full of serene beauty. We were the first to enter at 10:00, and I’d definitely recommend going early — it was already getting busy by the time we left. A peaceful and unforgettable experience in the heart of Kyoto.

This was the best omakase experience. Regarding the not so great reviews - the rules around etiquette are simple, don’t put your stuff on the counter (why do you need to anyways), be aware of the space you are taking up, and don’t be so loud. If you can’t follow that, then what are you doing here? I think folks would benefit from researching Japanese culture before traveling and certainly before writing a review on google. Nobody was “scolded” in our group. One couple had their phone on the counter and was quietly and politely asked to move it off. The sake pairings were explained to us as was the sushi. Chef hung back and answered questions, chatted about his favorite dishes, and referenced his time living in the US. Anyone saying the portions were small - we are at omakase! Each piece is thoughtful and meant to be nigiri and sashimi. I’m confused on what fellow reviewers were expecting when they went to omakase. Omakase is simple and elegant and Chef has exceeded all of those expectations. The room is quiet because you find yourself captivated by Chef’s skill and experience. This was a phenomenal experience and I encourage all foodies to go and add on the sake pairing.

This was the best Omakase sushi experience I’ve had by far! Sushi was amazing! Chef Matsudaya’s discipline and meticulousness can be seen and tasted in every bite. His preparation was almost like an art. It was quite a pleasure to watch it. He carefully prepared every single bite for every single person. At one point he noticed that I was eating my nigiris with fish-to-tongue method and warned me before the piece which should be eaten with the rice side down. This shows me how interested he is with your whole experience. As anywhere else on this planet with a work ethic, they have rules that you should follow, such as talk quietly and don’t place your phone on the counter (it is a common rule amongst good Japanese sushi restaurants). Long story short, it was a meal to be remembered for years. Thank you very much Chef Matsudaya!

Had such a wonderful dinner tonight with Chef Matsudaya. Each dish was full of flavor, texture and care in preparation. It was wonderful to be able to not only interact with Chef Matsudaya who was very personable and patient in explaining each dish and helping us to understand the ingredients or preparation, but being able to watch how our meal was carefully prepared was such a treat. The puffer fish, tuna and uni were my favourite. My husband tried the sake pairing and I loved the tea pairing with the meal. The cozy atmosphere made the experience extra special. Thank you so much for a wonderfully delightful experience.

The chef is an artist with perfection skill! Very friendly! Thx for showing us the original traditional Japanese dinning!

All the haters on here leaving negative comments are probably wet rags anywhere they go. This place was maybe the best dining experience I’ve ever had. The chief was serious but kind and had plenty of laughs with us (and a couple of drinks). The atmosphere was perfect for getting to know strangers. The food was outstanding - the chiefs cuts of fish were about as good as it gets. His family runs the place with him and they were so sweet. This was a night to remember!

Had a 5:30pm reservation last week and showed up 10 minutes early. The staff and Chef Matsudaya gave us a warm welcome. Chef Matsudaya explained every dish to us and provided an amazing experience for our first traditional omakase meal. Would come again!

An absolutely exquisite experience. Intimate 6-seat bar where you are up close and personal with the chef. Watch as he prepares every single course with grace. I got the 16-piece omakase course and I regret not getting the accompanying side dishes. They looked delectable. Sushi was phenomenal as expected; consume with your eyes and your mouth.

We can enjoy and experience the Japanese spring via the cuisine. All the ingredients are from seasonal vegetables and all their cooking method , for instance, the way they cut and stew the fish are eye opening. Special taste to have the fish wrapped with the egg-yolk. Lovely experience via the reservation system online.

Had a celebratory birthday lunch here and found the food and service to be very good. I was a bit worried about the food being too “conceptual”, but this was not the case. Each dish was well crafted and beautifully presented. They offered to explain any of the dishes and the staff were very friendly. I don’t think I’ll have another chance to try a Michelin star restaurant since it’s not really my style, but I’m glad I did so in Kyoto! Thank you Kikunoi Roan!

We had a wonderful evening at this two-Michelin-starred restaurant. We'd like to thank the team for a wonderful experience, both in taste and presentation. The tasting menu is very satisfying; request a seat at the bar.

Great Japanese fine dining experience. Owner makes a great attempt to make dining experience less daunting by providing an English version of the menu. Staff also keen to use gestures to show which dish is being served. All in all, I’d say it’s a great dining experience

The dinner could have been outstanding, as both the food and service were exceptional. However, the atmosphere was significantly disrupted by the loud behavior of guests from China, who seemed completely indifferent to the fact that others wished to enjoy their meals in peace. This lack of consideration overshadowed what could have been an otherwise memorable dining experience.

Had a wonderful time with my family here. Such amazing courses that we had, everything carefully crafted and they even had a sake of their own served in yeti-like bamboo shape so cool! Will definitely be back again whenever we visit Kyoto!

We visited Roan in May 2025 with high expectations, given its 2 Michelin stars — unfortunately, we left disappointed. The service scape felt underwhelming; while the space is tidy, it lacks the charm or refinement you’d expect at this level. Looking around, we even noticed areas that could’ve used more attention to cleanliness. We had the 11-course tasting menu, but none of the dishes stood out in flavor or presentation. Portions were oddly large for a kaiseki-style experience — the first course with jelly and yam was off-putting and set the wrong tone. The sashimi course was chewy, and many of the dishes tasted generic or forgettable. We appreciated the gesture of a small celebratory dish tailored to our occasion, but unfortunately, the food itself remained mediocre at best. It’s not that the staff or chefs didn’t care — they did, but not enough to make the experience truly memorable. Throughout our trip in Japan, we had better food, often in far more humble settings and at a fraction of the price. At over 55,000 yen for two (without drinks), we left questioning how this restaurant holds two Michelin stars. Sadly, we have to agree with some of the other critical reviews here — this was a big letdown.

Great inexpensive place to grab some good food. Our tour guide recommended this place after a walking tour. The gyoza was really good and the fried rice 🍚 equally satisfying after a long day of walking around Kyoto.

Amazing place and the Ramen is the best I had on my whole Japan trip! Also good prices. You can have Ramen for 500 Yen and if you want a lot of food you can be fine with 800 to 900 Yen!

Fast serving food. Cheaper price compared to similiar shop. Limited variety. A eatery just for a quick meal. Do not expect food serving same as shown in menu. Do not expect good service from them as they seem like rushing through the order.

Delicious Chinese fusion restaurant. Quick prep, recommended take the downstair seat for enjoying the cooking process.

So foreigners for some reasons are sent upstairs. We wanted to stay downstairs. The order did not come together. My Ramen came very late almost 25 minutes after my girlfriend got her food. Really bad ramen too. One of the worst I had in Japan. At least it is cheap. Ohhh I forgot the annoying background music almost got me mad while waiting. In all a bad experience.

Delicious gyoza, we also enjoyed the fried rice.

I like every Gyōza no Ohsho in Japan as the taste are all standard and tasty!!!

Quite modern sushi in terms of how to serve the customers. All were automatic and not many human interaction. Firstly you need to get your ticket from the machine and wait until your number is called and get the designed table number. And then just sit, grab the table on the table, put your orders, eat and the press finish. You then walk to the cashier machine to scan the QR code, pay and finish. The dishes were all good and fresh, the price also very reasonable. Recommended

Conveyer Belt Sushi :) Relatively cheap plates (120-300¥) and good fish. The lady at the counter greeted me warmly and also helped me find the water cups (up top) and the water dispenser (down the hall to the right in the corner). For the love of god, please try the Fatty Albacore Salted Yuzu plate (230¥) if it's available when you go. Comes with 2 pieces, topped scallions and the aformentioned ingredients. One of the tastiest bites I've ever had. Sour Zesty / Salty / Fatty, just so so good, can't recommend it enough. Other recommended: Tempura Cod(?) is very nice, salt-aged tuna is cheap and tasty but not too special but the fatty aged tuna is obviously really good, though a tiny bit more expensive. Also, there's a gacha game for players. Who buy 5 or more plates (as of rn) I got lazy so I didn't get many pictures but pictured is my check halfway through, a part of the ~700¥ set of 7 pieces, the whitebait (avoid, very bitter) and of course, the Albacore Yuzu.

There was some campaign when we get to this restaurant, so there is quite long queue. When we got the queue number it said we have to wait around one hour but we ended up with 40 minutes which is acceptable. At Kura sushi they put sushi on the belt and every plate has it own cover. Food were alright and standard but price is so cheap. It is only ¥120 for a plate and they applied the same price for almost of all dishes.

Fast food sushi place but cannot fault it. Been there a number of times on this trip. Take a table number at the door sit down and start ordering on their tablet. Great food, fast beer, go and enjoy.

Feels very novel as a foreigner,but it's cheap conveyor belt sushi, where things on the bottom row were all one price and then you had a tablet, in which you could order specific items that came on the upper conveyor. You can also win a prize for every 5 plates you put in the dispenser, which is a lot of fun. Overall the food was nice, great mix of sushi types, including, seafood, vegtable and some meat options. Desserts are available, as well as soft drinks and alcohol. Personal favourite was the onion rings which seemed to have been cooked in a tempura batter.

Chill and fun sushi spot with great fried food. Sushi was just okay but that's to be expected with conveyor belt style Sushi. The grape cider was absolutely delicious, I highly recommend.

What a fabulous first experience of a sushi train restaurant! Tried many different flavors, including fugu (pufferfish!)

High above the city, where the wind carries whispers of history through the trees, I found something quietly sacred — Iwashimizu Hachimangu Shrine. Riding the cable car up the forested slopes of Mount Otokoyama, I felt like I was being lifted not just through nature, but through time. At the top, the shrine stood with quiet dignity — centuries of prayer and presence carved into every beam and stone. The moment I stepped beneath the towering torii gate, a stillness settled in my chest. The bustle of the world below faded. Only the soft rustle of leaves, the chirp of birds, and the crisp Kyoto air remained. I wandered the grounds slowly, tracing the contours of the ancient buildings, marveling at the harmony between architecture and earth. The main hall, a national treasure, stood as if it had always belonged to the mountain itself. It wasn't just a visit. It felt like a conversation — between the soul and something far greater. I came looking for tradition. I left with peace.

Awesome huge shrine dedicated to Japan's God of war, hachiman. Short walk and cable car away from the nearby train station. Super convenient. Basically no people, nice views of Kyoto. A true hidden gem.

This shrine has 2 entrances that I was aware of. I cannot recall if there are more. There is one by cable car and another one going upstairs - a long trek. We went up with the cable car and went out through the stair exit/entrance. During this time one of the Tori was being reconstructed/restored so we didn't have the chance to see that when entering the main temple. There you can find goshuin masters and some souvenirs. The shrine is surrounded by marvelous flora and fauna. Beautiful birds and really interesting insects. I would say it certainly is a purifying trek with some beautiful scenic spots. No need to pay for entrance, only for cable car and transport.

Such a wonderful place to explore with no crowds at all! Ride the cable car up to the temple! Iwashimizu Hachimangū is a large shrine complex located on top of Mt. Otokoyama, surrounded by nature and a beautiful view. Free entrance.

I like this place because of the access to the top by cable car, the scenery is even more beautiful if you come in the fall, there is also a monument to Thomas Alva Edison at the top, an observatory, and a beautiful temple. When I was here, the front part was being renovated. So I only took photos at the front. The people around the temple are also very friendly.

Very serene and scenic location devoid of foreign tourists. Had a short tranquil walk around the area after going up the cable and has a nice restaurant near.

A spiritual oasis that encompasses bamboo Zen forest, shrine, and quirky monuments. There is a brutalist architecture chicken establishment on the grounds.

Went here on a day trip from Osaka, didn't know that there was a festival going on (sakura matsuri). The cherry blossoms were a sight to behold and had a blast walking through the festival while having snacks

It’s a beautiful place to enjoy hanami (sakura viewing). During sakura season, the riverbank is lined with lots of cherry blossom trees, creating a stunning sakura tunnel that stretches far along the walking path. There is also a sakura festival held during this time. It brings a lively atmosphere to the area. It can get very crowded, especially on weekends, but the beauty of the blossoms makes it worth it.Perfect for enjoying the fleeting beauty of spring.

A beautiful place to go for the sakura season. The sakura tunnel is spectacular. It is also relatively quiet and most people are local, there were very few foreign tourists. There are also many food and drink stalls and toilets. I would return here whenever I am in Japan in spring.

So many sakura here, and you can enjoy your picnic while cherry blossoms here. No tickets needed, no time limit.

been there 2 apr 2019 and the sakura not full blossomed. that being said, i highly recommend this spot coz it’s spacious for everyone! the 1300m-ish long sakura tree tunnel means you don’t have to fight or wait for a particular sakura tree. take the train to yawatashi station and follow the crowd to cross the bridge. you can prepare a floor mat for picnic after snapping 1000 shots. there are small food booths, toilets and a smoking tent (could be only during the sakura season, check before you go!)

Amazing park with great views and clean. Enjoyed the wall and all beautiful sakura

Such a lovely place to go 🌹 For 2025, 13/4 is the last day of sakura blossom :)

Saw an ad for a lantern festival at Uji Station and decided to make a stop here. An amazing experience from start to end as you will be able to enjoy the various types of lanterns throughout the temple. The feeling of exploring the temple at night with the lanterns lighting the way is truly magical and unforgetable. The temple itself is impressive in its architecture which you can take your time to explore since it is not a tourist hotspot. Overall, highly recommend pitstop as you will be getting a more authentic local experience without the overtourism!

The temple, which follows the Chinese-style Obaku Zen sect, stands out with its distinctive architectural design. The grounds are peaceful and beautifully maintained, offering a serene atmosphere perfect for reflection. The large, ornate buildings and detailed carvings provide a fascinating glimpse into a different aspect of Japanese Buddhism. The staff were welcoming and knowledgeable, enhancing the visit with insights into the temple’s history and significance.

Beautiful and huge temple unlike any other we've seen thus far in Japan, with such a rich and fascinating history. Extremely unique and the gardens are very well maintained. The staff was very kind! Definitely one of my favorite visits yet.

We visited Manpuku-ji early in the morning, and it felt as if we had the entire temple to ourselves. The grounds are spacious and beautifully maintained, and the quiet atmosphere made it incredibly peaceful and relaxing to wander around. It was a serene start to the day and a lovely place to slow down and take in the surroundings.

A most beautiful Chinese Buddhist temple on the grounds of Obaku, Kyoto. Wander peacefully and admire the beauty of the architecture and the precincts

Very nice lights festival inside a temple. Best to come early in the morning or at night where you can take advantage of the sights.

What a pleasant surprise this temple complex is. I went on a Sunday and there were very few people. Very peaceful 🙏

You can head inside the museum to learn about the process of making sake. Across the street is a garden where you can buy some sake samples, or head inside the restaurant for some food and more samples from the brewery. The food was delicious and it was definitely an experience.

Need a break? Need a drink? Perfect place for both. Good selection of drinks. Only issue was that not everything is chilled and they don’t have ice to help either the ones not chilled. Would have been very much appreciated on a hot day. Otherwise it’s a good place to visit.

If you’re looking for a place with authentic Japanese food and an amazing sake experience I highly recommend you to check this place out. It’s an sake and beer brewery that has a “souvenir” shop with sake and snacks and also a restaurant. The restaurant serves up an amazing sake tasting platter with 9 sake kinds for 1950 yen. The sushi is also amazing and comparable to other high end sushi places in Japan. The gyoza and chicken wings are also really good. The only negative thing I can think of was that the souvenir shop was closed when we had finished eating. The time was 20:00 then so I can understand that it’s late, but at the same time there were still a lot of customers in the restaurant who probably would have liked to browse the shop.

Well worth a visit! The sake is delicious, tried the last three on the menu. Nice patio on a warm day. The beer is also well done.

So much fun. 🌞 Wow they brew sake and beer 🍶🍺 Great sales room up front with all their products for sale.🛍️🛒 There is a bar with a lot of beers on tap and great views of their brewery. ⚗️ Then the restaurant is huge with fun seating and a huge menu. 🏮🥠 Beers and sake are offered at the restaurant 🧴 Offers taster sets 🍺🍺🍺 Restaurant has a great menu 📖🔖 Good for a meal with friends, coworkers, family, or a quick drink after work. 📉💏👨‍👩‍👦‍👦🗣️ Staff is super cool and attentive. 🏆 Quick 8 minute walk from the train.🚈 Parts of the restaurant are shoe free wear nice socks . 🧦👢👟

Price was very seasonable for the food and quality. Good value for money if you need a break from sake! It is a good lunch option if you are here for half day tour. It gets really popular during lunch time - I’d recommend coming in at noon.

Good food and sake. Surrounded by other sake and beer breweries making it a nice place to visit. Kappa artwork is a nice touch

Beautiful temple, the complex inside it is huge and it seems like there's a residential area behind it with traditional Kyoto house style. Very nice neighborhood. In one of the building, there's a zen garden experience that you can book, but it closes at 5 PM.

Very neat temple with a gorgeous ceiling painting of a dragon. It's a massive complex and offers guest houses to those who want to stay overnight. Was a fun visit!! They had a replica of the painting that I was able to get a neat video of to share with folks!

Nice temple with transition views and garden. There is tea shop you can sit on tatami and enjoy the quiet moment

Big temple complex with many other temples inside and in the Lecture hall are the world’s oldest still in use bell from 698

We stayed two nights here, and were very comfortable. You will be sleeping on the floor on futons. They lent us bikes which we rode all over, seeing the bamboo forest and ancient imperial palace.

Very interesting complex around the main temple to wander around for free. Various temples have small entrance fees for very small areas to view that don't quite feel worth the cost, especially if you've already been to the various temples on the east side of town and know what to expect, but the whole area is still worth visiting if you are touring the west side.

Beautiful and very peaceful and no tourists or groups

Tonkatsu was great. The omelette rice was great. The curry was great. Large portion of food for good price. If seeing the golden shrine nearby, it’s a great place to go.

Delicious, clean, great eating environment!!

The food is great, it is a set meal for a very cheap price. I really enjoyed it here :)

Nice restaurant near the Kinkaku-Ji temple. Space for big groups to eat together and a really nice vegan option (soy glazed soy meat with rice and salad).

It was an amazing atmosphere and no tourists the fried chicken ,tonkatsu and grilled chicken were all amazing and with every order came miso soup,rice and some other things

We had the burger menu cooked in a Japanese fashioned way, it was simply delicious.

They have a English menu and it is good value for money and the food is nice too

(Translated by Google) Flowers and food come together ✨ Satisfied with the shockingly delicious locally grown rice and carefully prepared Japanese food. The famous "Shokado Bento" is known throughout the country. The "Shokado" is actually located in my neighborhood. In the garden, you can see camellias in winter and wisteria trellises in early summer, and I have visited several times. There is a restaurant on the grounds of Shokado. The real thing [Shokado Bento] is 5,100 yen but this time I went to eat the evening dinner course with friends who cherish their hometown and Yawata City. A local friend who previously had his wedding at Iwashimizu Hachimangu Shrine held his reception here. I remembered how satisfied I was with the delicious Japanese course with a luxurious Japanese atmosphere, so I headed there with excitement ✨ The restaurant is on the right hand side after passing through the gate of Shokado, and you can go there without paying the entrance fee to Shokado. When we entered, the shop staff in kimonos greeted us with a smile. The pleasant smell of incense was in the air. We ordered the [Limited Time Special Course] for 10,000 yen (tax and service charge included) designed to coincide with the camellia season✨ The regular kaiseki course is 15,000 yen, so this is still a great deal😊 A thick towel and [hot water] were served. 1st dish [Grilled salted scallops] The vermilion-lacquered sake cups are for toso. Even though it's not an anniversary or anything, we feel great after toasting♪ The food arrived in a cute camellia-patterned ceramic dish✨ The plumpness of the scallops was comparable to the refreshing Tosa vinegar jelly and mountain yam! The crisp spring mountain vegetables, urui, were also good. 2nd dish [Shrimp shinjo] This bowl was also decorated with gold camellias in a jet-black dish. So beautiful...✨ I hesitated to open it. Gulp. Ahhh...the soup is delicious... The shrimp simmered in soy sauce is soft. Like rolled eggs in dashi. The shrimp inside is so plump. Third dish [Hassun] The basket is decorated with camellias blooming in Shokado. Each person has a different type of camellia, and a tag with the camellia's name written on it is placed on it. Elegant. There are three small bowls inside the basket. And one more outside the basket. ◯Bamboo shoots Yawata bamboo shoots picked today!! ️ Bamboo shoots are a specialty of Yawata☺️ When Edison invented the light bulb, the bamboo fibers from Yawata were selected from among materials around the world as the filament, so bamboo is famous🎋 "Where are these bamboo shoots from?" "They're from Tsuji-san's place." A local conversation unfolds😆 Tsuji Farm's young bamboo is the taste of youth. This unripe, slightly hard, bitter taste is only available now☺️ Good. ◯Sea bream nikogori Japanese spices and refreshing jelly ◯Mushidori and butterbur miso ◯Shiraae In addition to rape blossoms and red konnyaku, smoked daikon radish and almond crunchy cori‼ ️ Fragrant and creamy! So delicious〜✨ Now for the main course [Shokado bento] When you open the lid... it's steaming steaming. Steam comes out. "I might turn into a white-haired old man lol" The luxurious contents are exciting! The Shokado bento is divided into four sections, each with a different dish beautifully arranged. The Shokado bento started out as a container for dishes that Shojo Shokado used to hold utensils. The dishes do not mix together, making it a beautiful bento✨ ◯Sirloin Seasoned like sukiyaki, served with egg sauce❗️ Seasoned like sukiyaki, yet elegant✨ ◯Grilled salmon with saikyo-yaki, fried squid The original flavor of the fish is stronger than the miso. ◯Sashimi Sea bream, Densuke anago, Mongo squid Served with ponzu jelly. The skin of the conger eel and sea bream are seared with great care. ◯Steamed yuba The ginger is effective, and the burdock is crisp. The gluten inside is chewy❤️ [Rice] A magnificent rice cooker appears‼️ "This is Ueno's rice," says the shop staff. This is also local Yahata rice. This is...‼️ So good❗️ What?! It's unbelievably delicious! It's moist, but the rice is firm and fresh✨ So good. "We have rice, but it's cooked well in this rice cooker, so it tastes like this," says the gourmet member. We top it off with the egg sauce from the sukiyaki we had earlier, and get more pickles, and everyone finishes the rice in the rice cooker‼️🙌 [Soy milk jelly] Black beans inside, homemade sesame chips on top‼️ The soy milk has a strong bean flavor! "10,000 yen for this is a bargain," murmurs the gourmet. I nod and say, "Really?" I couldn't tell them I went there expecting to be treated to a feast🤣 But it's true that it's worth more than 10,000 yen. For a 1.5 year old child, they also had a Shokado bento for 2500 yen, which was filled with soft foods like chawanmushi, potato salad, and french fries. The shrimp simmered in red. The children's version was elegant and cute☺️ A course unique to Yawata City that also used local ingredients. It was wonderful✨ This course is only available for a limited time, but I'd like to come back again with my family for a more affordable lunch course on an anniversary or something. It was delicious, and my love for Yawata has grown even more☺️ (Original) 花と料理の共演✨地元産の衝撃的な旨さの米と丁寧な和食に満足。 全国に名を知らしめる「松花堂弁当」。 その「松花堂」が実はご近所にあります。 庭園では冬には椿、初夏には藤棚が見ることができ、私も何度か訪れました。 松花堂の敷地内にはレストランがあります。 ホンマもんの 【松花堂弁当】は5100円 ですが、今回は夜のディナーコースを食べに、地元•八幡市を大切にする仲間たちと会食。 以前、石清水八幡宮で結婚式を挙げた地元の友達は披露宴をこちらで行いました。 その時の和の豪華さを備えた美味しい和食コースに大満足したのを思い出し、期待に胸を踊らせて向かいます✨ お食事どころは松花堂の門をくぐると右手にあり、松花堂の入園料を払わずとも行くことができます。 中に入るとお着物を着たお店の方々がにこやかにお出迎え。 お香のいい香りが漂っています。 椿の時期に合わせて企画された 【期間限定特別コース】1万円（税サ込） を頂きます✨ 普段の会席コースは1万5千円なので、これでもかなりお得です😊 分厚いおしぼりと 【白湯】が登場。 1品目 【ホタテの焼き塩】 朱塗りの盃はお屠蘇用。 記念日でもなんでもないのに、乾杯したら、とってもいい気分♪ お料理は可愛い椿の焼き物の器に入って届きます✨ 土佐酢のジュレや山芋のサッパリさに負けない、ホタテのふっくらさ！ シャッキリした春の山菜、うるいも良き。 2品目 【海老しんじょう】 こちらも漆黒の器に金色の椿があしらわれたお椀。 美しい…✨ 開けるのをためらうほどです。 ごくん。 あっあー…おつゆおいしぃー… 海老しんじょうはフンワリ。 だしまき卵のよう。 中の海老はぷりぷりぃ〜 3品目 【八寸】 松花堂に咲く椿がカゴにあしらわれています。 椿の種類が1人ずつ違って、椿の名前が書かれた札が乗せられています。 風流。 カゴの中には小鉢が3つ。 カゴの外にもう１つ。 ◯たけのこ 今日採れた八幡の筍‼️ 筍は八幡の名産です☺️ エジソンの電球発明の時に「フィラメント」という部品が八幡の竹の繊維がいいと、世界中の素材の中から採用されたので、竹は有名なのです🎋 「どこの筍や？」 「つじさんとこのです」 地元ならではの会話が繰り広げられます😆 辻農園さんの若竹は、青春の味。 成熟していない、少しかためで苦味のあるこの味は今だけです☺️ いい。 ◯鯛のにこごり 和のスパイスと爽やかなゼリー ◯むしどりと蕗のとう味噌 ◯白和え 菜の花と赤こんにゃくに加えて、いぶりがっことアーモンドのカリコリ‼️ 香り高くクリーミー！ めっちゃ美味しい〜✨ いよいよメイン 【松花堂弁当】 フタを開けると…もくもくもく。 湯気が出てきます。 「白髪のおじいさんになってまうんちゃうか笑」 豪華な内容に盛り上がります！ 松花堂弁当は4つに仕切られて、それぞれ違うお料理が美しく盛り付けられています。 松花堂弁当は、元々は道具入れとして松花堂昭乗さんが愛用していたものを、料理の器にしたのが始まり。 それぞれの料理が混ざらず、見た目が美しいお弁当です✨ ◯サーロイン すき焼きの味つけで、たまごソースをつけて頂きます❗️ すき焼きの味付けなのにお上品✨ ◯サーモン西京焼き、イカフライ 味噌より、魚本来のお味が強め。 ◯お造り 鯛•伝助あなご•モンゴウイカ ポン酢のジュレで頂きます。 穴子も鯛の皮目も炙られいて、とっても丁寧。 ◯湯葉蒸し 生姜が効いていて、うどはシャッキリ。 中の生麩はもっちり❤️ 【ご飯】 立派なお釜が登場‼️ 「上野さんのお米です」 とお店の方。こちらも地元八幡のお米です。 これが…‼️ うんまー❗️ えぇぇ⁉️信じられないくらい美味しい！ しっとりしてるのに米がたってて、瑞々しい✨ うんまー。 「お米もあるけど、やっぱりこのお釜で上手に炊いてるから、この味になるんよね」 とグルメなメンバー。 先ほどのすき焼きの卵ソースを乗せたり、お漬物もおかわりして、全員でお釜のごはん完食‼️🙌 【豆乳ゼリー】 中には黒豆、上には自家製のゴマチップ‼️ 豆乳の豆の味が濃い！ 「これで1万円は安いなぁ」 とグルメ通がつぶやく。 「ほんまに」 と頷くわたし。 てっきりご馳走してもらえると思って行っただなんて言えなかった🤣 でも、1万円以上の価値があるのは本当。 1歳半のお子様連れにも2500円で松花堂弁当があって、茶碗蒸し、ポテサラ、ポテトフライなど、柔らかいものを詰めて下さってました。 海老しんじょうも赤い器で。 子供用は子供用で上品な可愛らしさです☺️ 地元の食材も使った八幡市ならではのコース。 素敵でしたー✨ このコースは期間限定だけど、また記念日とかにもうちょっと手が出しやすいランチコースを家族で食べに来たいな。 いいお味で、八幡愛がまた深まりました☺️

(Translated by Google) Of course, I was looking for Shokado bento. All flavors are of high quality and very delicious. In particular, the freshly cooked rice is exquisite in both its luster and taste. I couldn't help but order two refills. The interior of the restaurant is clean and has a calm atmosphere, and the atmosphere is great as it is adjacent to Shokado Garden. I plan to go again. (Original) もちろん松花堂弁当が目当て。 どの味も上品でとても美味い。 特に、炊きたてのご飯は艶、味ともに絶品です。思わず二杯おかわりをしました。店内は綺麗で落ち着いた雰囲気、松花堂庭園の隣接地なので雰囲気は最高。 また行くつもりです。

(Translated by Google) *Lunch Japanese cuisine is really delicious: Regardless of the appearance of each dish, the use of utensils, the combination of ingredients, and the chef's unique sauce, the umami flavor of the ingredients is brought out to the fullest. The dining environment, coupled with the attentive but well-placed greetings, are all indispensable. -The conger eel skin and fish body have a slight charcoal flavor and are combined with a large vinegar sauce. Those of us who are not fond of eating will all praise it. - The roasted food is actually made with large roots as the base. The aroma of mushrooms inside is combined with the refreshing sweetness of large roots. The freshness of crab meat and the juice are so delicious that I can no longer describe it. -The first time I ate red beans and rice, it was sticky and sweet. The crab meat and garlic rice has the fresh flavor of shiitake mushrooms and crab jelly every time I eat it. By the time the waiter has already served the second bowl of rice, it’s just right. Finally, I was lucky enough to take a photo with the chef and waiter. I will definitely go there many times if I have the chance, highly recommend. (Original) *Lunch 日式料理真係好食到不得了: 每道菜無論賣相 用具 食材配搭再加上主廚獨有嘅醬汁, 將食材嘅鮮味發揮得淋漓盡致。 用餐環境, 加上待應細心但非常到位嘅招呼, 環環相扣欠一不可。 -海鰻皮同魚身有些小炭香味加上大根醋汁，唔鍾食嘅我哋都要大讚。 -燒物 竟然用大根墊底，裏面菇嘅香 大根嘅爽甜 蟹肉嘅鮮加上個汁，個味道好食到都巳經唔識形容。 -第一次食紅豆飯黏口清甜，掂 而蟹肉大蒜飯每啖都有清香菇同蟹玉鮮味，唔駛等侍應自己已經裝第二碗飯，好正。 最後有幸同大廚和侍應合照留念。有機會一定要去多次，highly recommend.

(Translated by Google) Today I came to Kitcho for the Children's Day event. It was a lot of fun to experience mochi pounding and chimaki making. Of course the food was also great. (Original) 今日は、こどもの日のイベントで吉兆にやって来ました。餅つきやちまき作り体験など、とても楽しいかったです。もちろん料理も最高でした、

(Translated by Google) The taste was exquisite. When I mentioned it was my birthday, they gave me a complimentary serving of red rice. (Original) 上品なお味でした。 誕生日での利用と伝えたら、赤飯をサービスしてくれました。

(Translated by Google) I received the Shokado bento. The taste was of course great, but the service was also impeccable. Arareko Sencha was a masterpiece. (Original) 松花堂弁当を頂きました。味はもちろん最高でしたが、サービスも申し分がありません。あられ香煎茶が逸品でした。

(Translated by Google) It is about an hour away from Kyoto Station, so it seems difficult to use it unless you go there on purpose. This lunch box specialty restaurant of <Kitcho>, a Michelin 3-star kaiseki restaurant, requires a reservation before visiting, and allows you to enjoy your meal while looking at the well-maintained garden. Although it is a lunch box specialty restaurant, the price is not cheap (about 100,000 won) as it is a fine dining restaurant, but it provides the best service, so you can think of it as all included in the price. Since there are no other tourist attractions nearby, I had to experience only this store and then return to Kyoto, but I personally felt it was worth it. Although it is offered as a course, it costs 100,000 won per person for a packed lunch, so I recommend it to those who want to have a unique experience that doesn't feel expensive. If you simply value the exchange value of food, I also recommend not visiting~~!! (Original) 교토역을 기준으로 약 1시간 가량 떨어져 있어서 일부러 찾아가지 않는 한 이용하기는 힘들 것으로 보임. 미슐랭 3스타 가이세키 전문점인 <킷초>의 도시락 전문점으로 반드시 예약하고 방문해야 하며 잘 가꿔진 정원을 보며 식사를 할 수 있는 구조임. 도시락 전문점이지만 파인다이닝급이라 가격이 저렴하지는 않지만(원화 100,000원 선) 최상의 서비스를 제공하므로 가격에 모두 포함되어 있다고 생각하면 될 것임. 주변에 별다른 관광지가 없기 때문에 오직 이 점포만 경험하고 교토로 돌아와야 하지만 개인적으로는 그만한 가치를 느꼈음. 코스로 제공되기는 하지만 도시락으로 객단가 100,000원을 받는데 비싸게 느껴지지 않는 신기한 경험을 하고 싶은 분들에게 추천하는 바임.. 단순히 음식과의 교환가치를 중요하게 생각한다면 방문하지 않을 것 또한 추천함~~!!

(Translated by Google) I've been a fairly regular customer of this store. The service is not bad, and the onions are cooked just right and never taste raw. Uncooked onions are the worst. They're currently running a 100 yen topping campaign. I noticed this after I ordered. (Original) まあまあお世話になっている店舗です。 接客も悪くないし、玉ねぎも程よく煮込まれて生っぽいことは一回もありません。 玉ねぎ生煮えみたいの最悪ですもんね。 現在はトッピング100円キャンペーンやってるみたいです。注文してから気付きました。

(Translated by Google) I visited Yoshinoya for the first time in a long time and ordered a large bowl of head, but the quantity was obviously low and the onions were half-cooked and I didn't ask for it!I can't help but raise the price, but I don't want the contents, quality, or service to drop. ! (Original) 久しぶりに吉野家に訪問、あたまの大盛りを注文しましたが明らかに量がへっており玉ねぎは半煮えで頼んでないつゆだく!値上げは仕方ないですが中味や品質やサービスは落としてほしくないですね!

(Translated by Google) Always Yoshinoya Anything else to say? It's definitely a hit, right? I came to try the "Beef Sukiyaki Set" today. Well, it was a week early, so it wasn't on sale yet, lol. I had the large bowl, smothered in soup. Yoshinoya is so good! I usually go for the set meals. Because I'm a big eater. Free extra rice refills are amazing! So happy. So hungry. That's all from the scene! 😊 (Original) 安定の吉野家 なんか言うことあります？ 間違いないでしょ？ この日は「牛すき鍋膳」を食べに来店 まあ、一週早くてまだ発売されて無かったんですけどね笑 アタマの大盛を汁だくでいただきました。 うまいよねぇ吉野家 普段は定食派です なぜなら大食いなもんで。 ごはん大盛りおかわり無料は神 しあわせいっぱい はらいっぱい 現場からは以上です😊

(Translated by Google) When I ordered takeout, the waiter kept asking me questions as if he was making fun of me. I was very upset and wondered how he could do this job. I think he was a waiter before, but I saw another customer yell at him over the microphone. I think it would be better for your company if he was trained in basic manners for the customer service industry. (Original) テイクアウトで店員の客を馬鹿にしたような聞き返しの注文取りが非常に感に触る、よく接客業が務まるなと残念に思う。以前もこの店員だったと思われるが他のお客さんにマイク越しで怒鳴られたのを目にした。接客業の最低限のマナーを教育された方が御社のためになるかと思われます

(Translated by Google) It's been a while since I last went, but Yoshinoya doesn't have the image of being a cheap beef bowl these days, and the menu has changed strategically from before. There were more table seats in the store, and it felt bright and nice. (Original) 久しぶりにいきましたが、最近は吉野家も安い牛丼と言うイメージがなく、メニューも以前と戦略的に変わってきていますね。 店内もテーブル席が増え、明るくて良い感じでした。

(Translated by Google) The customer service is awful. If you go at night, there's usually a male staff member who looks like a student, and you really can't understand what he's saying over the drive-thru speaker. He speaks quickly and when you ask him to repeat himself he replies in a bored manner. No, he should speak so that customers can understand. He acts all arrogant over the speaker, but when you actually face him and his attitude changes he gets scared. Anyway, if you don't want to bother talking, then quit working as a waiter. It's definitely less stressful and the rice is tastier if you go to Sukiya. (Original) 接客が最低。 夜に行くとだいたい学生っぽい男性の店員がいるがそいつがまじでドライブスルーのスピーカーで何言ってるか分からない。 早口で喋って聞き返したらダルそうに返答してくる。 いや、客に分かるように話せや。 スピーカーでは態度でかいくせにいざ対面してこっちが態度変えたらビビってるし。 とにかく喋るんめんどいなら接客やめろ 余裕ですき家行ったほうがストレスフリーで米もうまい。

(Translated by Google) It's standard Yoshinoya quality. I think the customer service is good. The parking lot is fairly spacious. There's a drive-through. (Original) 普通の吉野屋クオリティです 接客はよいほうだと思います 駐車場割と広めかと思います ドライブスルーありました

(Translated by Google) I went there about a month ago. I've been interested in this place for a while, and since I had time to go for lunch, I decided to go. I had to leave suddenly, but since the chef was the only one working at the restaurant, I asked him to call me even if it was 5 minutes in advance. We recommend that you arrive with plenty of time to spare. Even though I was busy dealing with customers, cooking, paying bills, and cleaning up by myself, he explained each dish in a very easy-to-understand manner. All the dishes were very delicious and I'm glad I went there. I was able to enjoy the food slowly. The final dessert was also delicious. I don't like coffee and I don't like tiramisu either, but it was addictive and very delicious. I would definitely like to go again. (Original) 一ヶ月ほど前に行きました。以前から気になってまして、ランチに行ける時間ができたので行ってきました。急に行ってしまいましたが、シェフの方が1人でされているお店で5分前でもいいから電話してと。時間に余裕を持って行くのをおすすめします。お客さんの対応に、料理作り、お会計に片付けと1人で忙しいのに、一つ一つの料理について、とってもわかりやすく説明していただきました。どの料理もとても美味しくて、入ってよかったです。ゆっくり味わって食べることができました。最後のデザートも美味しかったぁ。コーヒーが苦手でティラミスも苦手なのですが、クセになる味でとてもおいしかったです。ぜひぜひまた行きたいです。

(Translated by Google) The other day I had a full course meal for dinner. There is no a la carte menu for dinner, only courses. I looked for various photos, but I went there without knowing what kind of food would be served. In conclusion, it was very delicious and the portions were very large lol. It was a happy scream. From what I remember, there were about three local vegetable dishes as appetizers, followed by a fish dish, a meat dish, pasta, and dessert. Personally, it was as if I had been served a la carte five times lol. The taste was very good, and the service was polite, with the chef even asking if I was worried about the saltiness. He also noticed that I was left-handed and took the trouble to put my fork and other things on the left. I had only visited once a dozen years ago, and he remembered that I was silent, even though I had not said anything. Normally, I can eat a large serving of ramen or a refill, plus one other dish, but on this day I asked for a smaller portion for the first time, and although the dessert was really wonderful and delicious, I couldn't finish it. Sorry, it seems to be crowded at lunchtime, so it's best to make a reservation. I'd definitely like to try it again on an empty stomach lol. If I had to say one thing, I think it would be better if the counter was a little more clear! (Original) 先日ディナーでフルコースをいただきました。ディナーはアラカルトがなく、コースのみだそうです。いろいろお写真など探したのですが、どんなものが提供されるかおおよそわからないまま伺いました。結論から言いますとすごく美味しく、ものすごく量が多かったです笑　うれしい悲鳴というやつですね。覚えている範囲で書くと　前菜地元のお野菜の料理が3品ほど出てきて、魚料理、肉料理、パスタ、デザートの流れでした。個人的にはアラカルトが5回提供していただけたようなボリュームでした笑　味もとても美味しく、塩加減などは気にして大丈夫ですか？などお声がけもしてくださる丁寧なサービスでした。また私が左利きなのを気付いて、わざわざフォークなどを左に置き直してください、十数年前に一度だけ訪れたことがあったのですが、黙っていたのにも関わらず覚えていてくださった驚異的な記憶力のシェフです。普段はラーメンなら大盛りか替え玉、プラス一品くらいは食べられるのですが、この日は初めて後半量を少なめにお願いし、デザートは本当に素晴らしく美味しかったのですが食べきれませんでした。申し訳ない、、ランチは混み合うそうなので予約がスムーズだそうです。またぜひ完全な空腹で挑みたいと思います笑　本当に強いていうならば、もう少しだけカウンターをスッキリするとより良いかもしれないと思いました！

(Translated by Google) The chef runs the entire restaurant himself, so it's best to call even just beforehand. Also, it seems like it's difficult if you're short on time. Even though the chef is busy, he makes every effort to be considerate. Homemade bread is free to refill. The appetizers, pasta, and desserts were all delicious. It's even better if you can drink wine. (Original) 完全にシェフのワンオペなので、直前でも電話してくれると助かるそうです。 また、時間に余裕がないと厳しいみたいです。 シェフは忙しい中でも、精一杯気を使ってくれます 自家製パンはおかわり無料。前菜もパスタもデザートもおいしかった。ワイン等飲める人には、なお良いのでは

(Translated by Google) This is my favorite shop. However, since the chef is very unique, impressions may be divided there. (He has a researcher's temperament, or rather he is very picky, and he cares about the food and the customers.) Currently, only one chef is managing the food, so it takes time to serve it. Recommended if you have time. Also, I think it is almost necessary to make a reservation by phone. The vegetable dishes are especially delicious. The meat is delicious, but there aren't many restaurants that serve delicious vegetables, so I'm grateful. The bread (especially the focaccia) that the chef bakes himself is also delicious. However, if you don't say anything, it will come out in great volume. Women may find it difficult to eat all of their food. In other words, you can eat less, so we recommend ordering a small amount at first (especially for dinner). It seems that the price has gone up a little recently, but personally, considering the quality and service, I think it's a completely reasonable price. (Original) 大好きなお店です。 ただ、シェフがとてもユニークなので、そこで印象が分かれるかもしれません。 (研究者気質というか、こだわりが強いというか、料理やお客さんのことをとても気にかけてくださります) 今はシェフが1人で切り盛りされているので、提供には時間がかかります。お時間に余裕があるときにオススメです。また、電話予約はほぼ必須と思います。 お料理は野菜系が特に美味しいです。 お肉も美味しいですが、野菜が美味しいお店は少ないので有難いです。シェフが自分で焼いているパン(特にフォカッチャ)も美味しい。 ただ、何も言わないとと凄いボリュームで出てきます。女性は食べきることが難しいかもしれません。 言えば少なめにもしていただけるので、最初は少なめオーダーをおすすめします(特にディナー)。 最近少し値上がりされたみたいですが、個人的には質やサービスを考えると全然納得のお値段です。

(Translated by Google) It's been a while since I last had Italian food. I chose "Pasta Lunch" from the menu. For the appetizer, I chose ``Homemade Prosciutto Cot Salad with Basil Flavor.'' It was juicy, fresh, and had great flavor. Your hunger will be satisfied. For the main pasta, I chose ``Eggplant and homemade ricotta cheese in tomato sauce.'' I like the taste of tomato sauce. The ricotta cheese does a good job. The taste is delicious and satisfying. The volume was good and I felt full. Fresh with dessert and hot coffee. It was a very satisfying lunch. (Original) 久しぶりのイタリアンです。 メニュー表から「パスタランチ」を選びました。 前菜は「自家製プロシュート・コットのサラダ仕立て バジルの香り」にしました。 瑞々しくフレッシュで旨味抜群でしたよ。 空腹が満たされていきます。 そしてメインのパスタは「ナスと自家製リコッタチーズのトマトソース」をチョイスしましたよ。 トマトソース味が好きなんですよね。 リコッタチーズがいい仕事をしています。 お味は納得のウマウマ系です。 ボリュームもよく、いい感じでお腹いっぱいになっちゃいました。 デザートとホットコーヒーでフレッシュです。 大満足のランチとなりました。

(Translated by Google) I visited for a New Year's party lunch. Italian food has been on my mind for a while. First, round bread and focaccia were served (refills OK!) Appetizers, pasta, desserts, and drinks. The seasoning made me want to drink wine, so I held back this time. Can you eat garlic and liver? Please? etc. were confirmed in detail. The smiling faces of the staff will brighten the atmosphere of the store and encourage you to visit the store next time. Thank you for the meal. (Original) 新年会のランチで訪問しました。前から気になっていたイタリアン。最初に丸パンとフォカッチャが出されました(おかわりOK！) 順に前菜、パスタ、デザート、飲み物。ワインが飲みたくなる味付けで、今回は我慢しました。ニンニクやレバーが食べれるか？どうか？など細かく確認されました。スタッフの笑顔の対応がお店の雰囲気が明るくなり、次回来店に繋がります。ご馳走さまでした。

Otagi Nenbutsu-ji Temple was definitely worth the visit and made a great addition to a day trip in the Arashiyama area. The entry fee is 500 yen per person, and while the temple itself is fairly small with quite a few steps to climb, the thousands of quirky, expressive head statues make it absolutely unique and memorable. I recommend taking a cab from central Arashiyama to the temple, as the bus tends to be very crowded and less convenient. The only downside was that the toilets were not well maintained and quite dirty. Overall, a charming and distinctive temple that’s worth the detour. I definitely recommend visiting if you’re already in Arashiyama.

This temple is a must visit. Entrance fee is 500 Yen and you can take the bus to go here. The bus is crowded and has quite long intervals so you have to wait. Using taxi is also a good option because it’s just around 1.500 Yen and you can divide it with your friend😄 The temple has such a unique signature that you cannot find in other temple. The moment you enter, you will immediately say wow!! The Japanese truly preserve their heritage well and it shows in here. They let the statues to be grown by moss to let the history stands. It also says that you will be reminded of someone when you see one of these statues. It’s a fun way to look closely to each statue😊 This temple is small so you can spend just 20 minutes here and explore Arashiyama after this

A shrine that is definitely worth visiting. The statues covered in moss are something truly special, and almost can make you feel like you are in Spirited Away haha It is also quite relaxing, however I would recommend coming in the morning if you'd like a full experience… the crowds take away some of the shrine’s charm (that's why one down)

After a few days in Japan and having visited some other temples, I have to say this one is quite peculiar and unique. It’s easy to walk to the temple from the bamboo forest or train station, or you can take a bus/taxi. There are some ramps and steps there and it can be a little bit slippery if it has rained. At first glance, most of the statues seem similar but if you look closely, there are a lot of different and interesting ones. Everything was very clean and well kept. It’s 500 yen to enter.

Absolutely a must visit. 500 yen entrance fee. There are thousands of statues that are covered in moss with some quite humorous. There are many stairs here to climb . While no longer an off the beaten track location, it is very much worthwhile. A taxi from central Kyoto is much more efficient than the bus which is very crowded and takes about an hour. The taxi ride is about 30 minutes and about 5000 yen.

After leaving Adashino Nenbutsuji around 9:30 am, I walked about 10 minutes further and reached Otagi Nenbutsuji. The temple is full of these quirky stone statues with each of its own expression. Some looked like they were laughing, others almost cartoonish which made the place diffetent from the usual temples. It wasn't crowded so I could wander slowly. Entrance was ¥500.

Otagi Nenbutsu-ji is one of Kyoto’s most whimsical and underrated treasures. Tucked away in the quiet hills of Arashiyama, this temple is home to over 1,200 stone Rakan statues – each one carved with a different facial expression and personality. Some are smiling, others praying, some even laughing or pulling silly faces. Walking among them feels like being surrounded by a crowd of joyful, peaceful souls frozen in stone. The moss-covered statues, forested surroundings, and quiet atmosphere give the place a magical, almost otherworldly vibe. It’s a bit off the beaten path, but absolutely worth the detour for those seeking something truly unique and soulful.

Very large temple grounds. We spent easy an hour plus walking around. There are vending machines after you enter the grounds as well.

Accidently happened across this temple on the way to another one, and so glad we did. It is hands down one of my favorite temples in Kyoto. It is so peaceful with the garden and you can explore parts of the temple grounds. Easily spent an hr here and would come back again.

Worth a visit as you’re probably exploring the surrounding area (bamboo forest, other temples…). But it’s not particularly remarkable. It’s beautiful and well maintained as all the other temples around here, but if you’re merely visiting and you have no religious connection to the place, you may easily forget this temple later on. I would still check it out. You have to pay to enter, can’t remember how much it was, but it was 1000 yen or less.

Stumbled upon this temple while visiting the bamboo forest. We arrived around 9:30am and we were the only ones there. It was so gorgeous with all the fall foliage. There’s also a stunning view if you walk all the way up the stairs in the back and go to the right up the path!!

This quiet temple is located on the hill at the edge of Arashiyama, a short and pleasant walk from the more popular areas. We visited in early spring so the grounds were not at their best - I hear autumn is the best season to go - but worth a visit in any season. Aside from foliage, the main draw is the presence of historical graves in the grounds, including several of significant cultural interest. The graves are laid out over several levels, and the paths can be uneven and slippery, so take care and wear good shoes if you intend to explore. There's also a path leading up to a lookout with lovely views to the east over the city.

Visited on 10 Dec 2024. Leaves were still vibrant. Not too busy, definitely a respite from the usual Arashiyama crowd. A hidden gem for momiji views.

Stopped by by chance — unexpectedly cozy and peaceful. A quiet, beautiful place that’s perfect for a short visit.

This is a temple that moss enthusiasts must visit during the rainy season. The moss here is well-maintained and features a variety of species, unlike other temples that have a more limited selection. The design of the courtyard is also very innovative, with a different scenery at every step, making it suitable to spend several hours exploring at a leisurely pace. The reservation system also helps maintain a relatively quiet atmosphere in the temple. During my visit, I explored the entire courtyard in heavy rain, and I hope to have the opportunity to return here after the rain next time. After all, having wet shoes and socks can affect the overall experience.

A must visit location for a bit of self eflection amd tranquillity amongst a beautifully maintained heritage site. Book online prior to coming, there is no entry otherwise on the day. Prepare to copy a written text prior to visiting the gardens, this was a unique experience using a writing desk in a temple. The sutra is a blessed token you can take woth you to remember your experience by. Of course with all the photos you'll no doubt take.

Such a unique experience! Definitely book in advance. The visit takes just over an hour. First, you’ll copy a sutra (prayer) - very neat and meditative experience- while sitting in the main hall, about 15 minutes. Then you can walk around the gardens. We went at 9:30am and it was absolutely beautiful. Over 120 species of moss!

⚠️ Instagram tourist trap ⚠️ • The entry needs to be reserved in advance and costs 4000 yen per person! • The sutra copying is a gimmick, if you are a tourist. If you are a Buddhist, then there are definitely more accessible options. • The garden is nice, but overrated. If you've ever been to any forest in Japan, then you could find a lot of moss covered places. I get it that is is not so neatly organized as in a garden. • The walk in the garden is roughly 20 minutes. • The price is so high just because Steve Jobs visited. Before is was few hundred yens (according to other reviews). • There are other, much cheaper alternatives, e.g. Gioji temple. Totally not worth it. Total rip-off.

You have to buy/reserve tickets beforehand. I believe we got ours a week before. It keeps the crowds at bay so better photos! Earlier times have less people as with most temples in the area. Absolutely beautiful.

you need to pay in advance and make reservation if you want to visit the temple ‏there is an amazing garden that is worth your time and effort and spiritual activities if you wish to participate

Wonderful experience. Incredibly serene, atmosphere, within a beautiful temple. Yes tickets are needed in advance, and we preferred the format to managing the tranquility and keep the facility from being overrun with foot traffic. Would gladly visit again.

They mention opening hours is until 5PM however the security guard told us no entry we are closed when I tried to visit at 3:40PM. Yet another place not following it'a own rules in this country, shame.

(Translated by Google) A great place. The palace complex of the local ruler. Really impressive, and huge. When we got there it was a very hot day. And there was a pleasant refreshment area and free lockers at the entrance. The Japanese garden at the end of the tour is amazing. Worth a visit. A great place. The palace complex of the local ruler.

(Translated by Google) ``Seiryoden'' A palace that has been established as the daily residence of the emperor since the Heian period. The tatami-covered area in the center is called ``Hino-omashi,'' the throne where the Emperor lived every day. In the taiga drama ``Hikaru Kimi e,'' a set was built that faithfully recreated Seiryoden, but the space between the two stairs leading down to the garden was made slightly smaller by having two rooms, one less than the actual three rooms. (Original) 「せいりょうでん」平安時代から天皇の日常のお住まいとして定着した御殿。中央の畳を敷いた部分が「昼御座(ひのおまし)」という天皇の日常の御座。 大河ドラマ「光る君へ」では清涼殿を忠実に再現したセットが組まれたが庭へ下りる2つの階段の間は実際の3間から1つ減らした2間とされ若干コンパクトに作られた。

(Translated by Google) The palace was the daily residence of the emperor from the mid-Heian period. This building later came to be used for traditional ceremonies such as political affairs and festivals. (Original) 平安時代中期から、天皇の日常のお住まいであった御殿。のちに政事や祭事など伝統的儀式に使われるようになった建物です。

(Translated by Google) I was able to visit it a year after Reiwa 4. (Entering was prohibited because the roof was being repaired or something.) I was also able to see the long-awaited ``Takiguchi''. I remember the scene in the movie "Nichiren" (Morozuya Kinnosuke version) that I saw a long time ago, where the "Samurai of the North Face" (Akira Nishimura) slashes Nichiren after he is exiled to "Sado Island" (lol), and it must have been during the Heiankyo era. I wondered if it could have been a little more spacious. Come to think of it, the scene with Mt. Hosho at the Gion Festival...it's unscrupulous, but it's fun. (Original) 令和４年から一年後に見学出来ました。 （屋根の修理中か何かで立入禁止でした） 念願の「滝口」も見れました。 昔に見た映画「日蓮」（萬屋錦之介版）で「佐渡ヶ島」に流された日蓮に斬りかかる「北面の武士」（西村晃）さんの場面が浮かび（笑）、平安京の時代はきっともう少し広かったかなと想いを巡らしました。そう言えば祇園祭の保昌山の場面も・・・不謹慎ですが楽しい。

(Translated by Google) Items used in ceremonies such as enthronement are on display. It's huge and I think it's worth seeing. (Original) 即位などの儀式で使われるものが展示されています。 規模も大きく、一見の価値があると思います。

(Translated by Google) During the Heian period, it was used as a place for the Emperor to conduct government affairs, and gradually became a place for ceremonies. The building was rebuilt in the late Edo period in the same style as the old one. (Original) 平安時代は天皇の政務場所として使われ、だんだん儀式の場になった。 この建物は江戸末期に昔の様式に従い再建されたものである。

(Translated by Google) I visited on November 23, 2023. The five-lined Tsukiji wall at the main gate is an indication of its high status. My last visit in April was open to the public, so I returned during the special autumn viewing period. A group of about 20 people toured the grounds, listening to an explanation from an attendant (since it's a group visit, there is a set start time, and if you're unlucky, you could wait up to 40 minutes). If the time and date are right, I recommend visiting, as you can see the Shinden and Shoin halls, which are decorated with gorgeous sliding screen paintings (the viewing content changes slightly each year). I also found the checkered pattern painted in the white sand garden in front of the Shinden hall to be very beautiful. As a monzeki temple, it has ties to the imperial family and nobles, and it is said that during the Tenmei fire and the fire at the Imperial Palace during the Edo period, the emperor at the time used this as a temporary palace. By the way, Tsukiji walls previously had four or no reinforcement, but they have been restored to five (during the previous renovation work to prevent deterioration, a contractor made a mistake and the walls were left with four reinforcement, and then the reinforcement was removed and the walls were left without reinforcement. You can see this by looking at other people's photos). Also, am I the only one who thinks of fresh yatsuhashi when I hear Shogoin? There are several yatsuhashi manufacturers, but I'm a Shogoin fan. (Original) 2023年11月23日に参拝しました。 山門の築地塀には五本筋があり、格式の高さが伺えます。 前回４月の訪問時は自由拝観のみだったため、秋の特別拝観に合わせて再訪しました。 係員の方の説明を聞きながら20人ぐらいで境内を拝観しました（団体行動のため開始時間が決まっており、タイミングが悪いと最長で40分ほど待つことになります）。 豪華絢爛な障壁画に彩られた宸殿内や書院を見ることができるので、時期や日程が合えばおススメです（拝観内容は、毎年少しづつ異なります）。 また、宸殿前の白砂のお庭に描かれた市松模様がとても美しくて素敵でした。 門跡寺院なので、皇室や公家との繋がりがありますが、江戸時代に起こった天明の大火や御所の火災の際には、当時の天皇がこちらを仮御所としたそうです。 ちなみに、以前の築地塀は四本筋又は無筋でしたが、五本筋に復活していました（前回の老朽化の改修工事で業者のミスにより四本筋になり、その後、筋を消して無筋に。他の方の写真を見るとわかりますよ）。 あと、聖護院と聞いて生八ツ橋を連想するのは私だけでしょうか？　八ツ橋メーカーは複数ありますが、聖護院派です。

I am very close to the sect of this temple! Shugendo hozan ha! From outside it doesn’t look so attractive but it is a huge part of the Kyoto buddhism, they have lot of national treasures and many Movies/séries are short there Surrounded by lot of others good places! Great to visit it

(Translated by Google) Head temple of the Shugen sect of Buddhism. Built at the end of the 11th century, it boasted a high status as a ``monzeki temple'' whose chief priest was the imperial family and the Sekke family. During the special opening period in autumn, you can visit without reservation and see the beautiful Kano school's paintings on fusuma and the statue of Fudo Myoo, which is an important cultural property. Before the Meiji period, there was a temple in the forest, and many Shugendo practitioners (Yamabushi) gathered here to practice the teachings of Shugendo, which worships nature. ``Shogoin radish'' and ``Shogoin turnip'', which were grown in this area during the Edo period, still retain their names as traditional Kyoto vegetables. ■Reservation: Not required for special exhibitions ■Price: 800 yen (admission fee) ■Accessibility: 10 minutes walk from Keihan Railway "Jingu Marutamachi Station", 3 minutes walk from Kyoto Municipal Bus "Kumano Shrine-mae" (Original) 本山修験宗の総本山の寺院。 11世紀末に創建され、皇族や摂家が住職を務める「門跡寺院」として高い格式を誇りました。 秋の特別公開の時期は予約無しで拝観をすることが可能で、狩野派の見事な襖絵や重要文化財の不動明王像を見学することができます。 なお、明治以前は森の中に寺院があり、大自然を崇拝する修験道の教えを実践する場として、多くの修験者（山伏）が集ったそうです。 この地で江戸時代に作られた「聖護院大根」「聖護院かぶ」は、伝統的な京野菜として今もその名前を残しています。 ■予約：特別公開時は不要 ■料金：800円（拝観料） ■アクセス性：京阪電車「神宮丸太町駅」徒歩10分、京都市営バス「熊野神社前」徒歩3分

(Translated by Google) I visited during the special autumn opening. This is a Shugendo temple founded by En no Gyoja. Since the son of Emperor Goshirakawa entered the temple, it has also become a prestigious monzeki temple, where a member of the imperial family has served as its abbot. Following the Tenmei fire during the Edo period, the temple was used as a temporary imperial palace for Emperor Kokaku, and the interior decorations convey the atmosphere of an imperial palace. I felt a deep connection with the visit to the place where Emperor Kokaku was scheduled to enter the temple as abbot when he was a young prince named Sachinomiya. (Original) 秋の特別公開に合わせて拝観しました。 役行者を開祖とする修験道のお寺です。 また後白河天皇の皇子が入寺して以来、 皇族が門主を務める門跡寺院として格式高いお寺でもあります。江戸時代の天明の大火により光格天皇の仮皇居とした時期もあり、御所の雰囲気が伝わるような室礼です。光格天皇が幼少の祐宮の頃に門主として入寺する予定だった場所に行幸されることにご縁が深いと感じました。

(Translated by Google) I visited the temple during a special open day in October 2025. I wasn't able to go when it was open last year. The pamphlet I received had changed from the one I received previously. I also received the red seals of En no Gyoja and the Thirty-six Fudoson statues of Kinki. In the Shinden hall, I was given a very detailed explanation. Photography was allowed inside the second and third rooms in particular, so I took some photos (the upper room is also in the photo). (Original) 令和七年十月、特別公開で拝観しました。　昨年の公開の時は行くことができなかったので。パンフレットが以前いただいたものと変わっていました。役行者と近畿三十六不動尊の御朱印もいただきました。 宸殿ではかなり詳しく説明していただきました。特に二之間・三之間の室内の写真撮影がＯＫでしたので撮影させていただきました(上段之間も写っています）

(Translated by Google) This temple has deep ties to the Imperial family and is renowned for its many stunning sliding screen paintings and historic architecture. 👍 The upper room, where the Emperor once stayed, is a true Imperial Palace. 😆 It's usually closed to the public, but I visited it during a special viewing in the fall of 2025. 😆 (Original) 皇室と所縁の深い寺で多くの障壁画と歴史ある建造物がすばらしいです👍天皇も滞在した上段の間は御所そのものです😆 通常非公開で令和7年秋の特別公開で拝観しました😆

(Translated by Google) I've had very few, if not almost none, negative experiences visiting temples in Japan. This temple was one of them: to begin with, I bought the 800 yen entrance fee to enter the paid area, and as soon as I entered, a young woman kept an eye on me in case I broke the rules, something I always try to respect. It was one of those situations where a Japanese person doesn't make a visitor feel welcome simply because they're "gaijin" (a foreigner). I asked her, to clear up any doubts, what items I could take photos or video of, and I agreed to try to record one so the person who said "OK" would answer. As soon as I started to narrate in a low voice, both she and another woman got annoyed and scolded me. The final straw, and what made me feel uncomfortable, was when they came up with the rule about not carrying a backpack... when a minute earlier a Japanese man with a backpack had walked by and they had no problem with it. Seeing that everything was prohibitive and the staff's clear intentions, I asked them in a friendly and ironic tone, "Okay, if you prefer, I'll leave without visiting," to which they replied, "Yes, please." I left, put my shoes back on, and, surprisingly, at the ticket window, they had already prepared a refund of 800 yen to give me back without asking. It's a shame, but it was a clear example of a temple that may have had some bad experiences with foreign tourists, and I'd like to think that justifies the treatment I received today... I'm not giving it 1 star, but 2 because I must admit that the limited-time dry Zen garden, which can be viewed for free from the outside, is very beautiful. But the rest of the experience was a bit regrettable. P.S.: When you read other reviews here, even from Japanese people themselves, who also say they received uncomfortable and discriminatory treatment, what I just experienced makes perfect sense. It seems like a temple that welcomes only a certain caste or group... (Original) He tenido muy pocas, por no decir casi ninguna, experiencia negativa visitando templos en Japón. Este templo ha sido una de ellas: para empezar, he comprado la entrada de 800¥ para acceder a la zona de pago, y tan pronto como he accedido, una señora joven no me quitaba el ojo de encima por si incumplía reglas, cosa que siempre intento respetar: era una de esas situaciones en las que una persona japonesa no hace sentir a un visitante bienvenido por el mero hecho de ser “gaijin” (extranjero). Le he preguntado, para salir de dudas, a qué elementos se les podia hacer fotos/video, he accedido a intentar grabar uno para que el que me dijo “OK”, y en cuanto empiezo a narrar en voz baja, tanto ella como otra señora se sienten molestas y me regañan. El colmo, y lo que me ha resultado incómodo, ha sido cuando se han sacado de la manga la regla de que no vaya con la mochila colgada… cuando un minuto antes pasó un señor japonés con mochila y no tuvieron ningún inconveniente. Viendo que todo eran prohibiciones y la clara intención del personal, les pregunto con tono amable e irónico, “vale, si lo prefieren, me marcho sin realizar la visita”, a lo que me responden “si, por favor”. Salgo, vuelvo a ponerme el calzado y sorpresa, ya en la ventanilla de tickets tenian preparado el reembolso de 800¥ para devolvermelos sin pedirlos. Una lastima pero ha sido un claro ejemplo de templo que quizás ha tenido alguna mala experiencia con turistas foráneos y quiero pensar que eso justifica el trato recibido hoy … No le pongo 1 estrella sino 2 porque debo reconocer que el jardin seco zen de tiempo limitado y que se puede ver gratis desde fuera, es muy bonito. Pero el resto de experiencia ha sido un poco lamentable. PD: cuando lees por aqui otras reseñas incluso de los propios japoneses que también dicen algunos haber recibido un trato incomodo y discriminatorio, lo recién experimentado cobra total sentido. Parece un templo que da la bienvenida solo a cierta casta o colectivo…

I think 700 yen is a bit much for a small temple like this. I was genuinely confused when i reached the end of the garden after only a few steps, for some reason i expected it to be bigger? The flowers and umbrellas are cute, but I unfortunately don’t recommend this temple.

The temple and it's territory itself is beautiful and zen, the meditation session was a bit underwhelming: 10 min focus, 5 min break, 15 min focus. No singing bowls, mantras, or anything like that. Just sitting in silence among other people. The cool element: you can get into a 🙏 pose and the monk observing the crowd will smash you with a paddle-looking bat on your back to get you back to focus. Some people overused it like a free massage and got over 5 hits:) No translation of monk speech but they gave me a printout which delivered the gist in English. Bathroom available on the site.

I went here with a guide (Magical Trip company in Kyoto) to do a meditation session. I’m not religious or spiritual but it was worth it to experience something of the Buddhist teachings. I imagine it’d be lovely in autumn when the leaves change colour. Worth a visit if you have a few spare hours in Kyoto and want to do something a bit off the path. Suggest going with a guide as the monk does not speak in English at all during the sessions. From there we walked to the famous Fushimi Inari-taisha shrine (the one with all the orange poles) so if you want to make a day of it and you’re fit enough to walk a fair way it’s a good day out if the weather is kind.

Went to the Shorinji temple for the zazen meditation. The meditation was in japanese only but they have English instructions if needed. The meditation was good and the temple lovely

The temple is small, but they had the right idea to use umbrella. Sadly for me maples were still green. With red colors i think u can get nice shot

The flowers were pretty and the quiet surroundings made it enjoyable

Great experience, peaceful place to come for those in search of serenity. Very kind Monk, highly recommended.

great memory visiting here, especially when the sakura blooming. save one star for the next sakura season visiting.

A great place to admire the beautiful scenery of full cherry blossoms. People come here to picnic with friends and family under cherry trees，full with happy moods and laughters.

If you want to get rid of a big crowd(mostly the tourists -mine too 😝), this is a good place to chill up. Take a nap under the sakura trees is such a pleasing 😆

So sad to know & see the damaged tree but glad to see they are still alive! Here is a great place!

Said to be the best Sakura spot in Kyoto. 1.3km of Sakura tunnel.

Nice for cycling, running or walking. Or just to relax! There is an adjacent car park.

This place is awesome because it is full of Sakura 🌸~ People enjoy picnicking here.

This is a surprise find during a walk in Kyoto. Really love the cosy vintage looking yakitori joint. We actually dined here twice, having the last one on our last night in Kyoto. I'll miss the flavourful, juicy BBQ skewers and the price is pretty reasonable. Wishing the staff all the best and keep up the great work! My picks would be: Grilled chicken thigh Garlic chicken (my missus loves this) Pork belly Chicken wings (must order!!!) Chicken soup (refreshing) Chicken wasabi Sausage

It was definitely an amazing yakitori experience. Chicken and leek, chicken cartilage, pork belly, yuzu chicken, cheese chicken, chicken hearts... Every bite is delicious, bursting with flavor and incredibly juicy! The owner speaks excellent English, so communication was smooth. We arrived around 9 PM without a reservation, but the chicken skin, chicken thighs, and spicy chicken breast we wanted were already sold out, proving that the ingredients are fresh. Note that orders are cut off at 10 PM. And only cash payments are accepted.

Amazing dinner here. The people who run this place seem really lovely too. We got a selection of different yakitori to share, all delicious. The cabbage was so good and the onigiri was the best we had in Japan hands down. Thank you.

The place has that proper izakaya vibe — cozy, lively, and filled with the smell of perfectly grilled yakitori. Every skewer we tried was juicy, smoky, and packed with flavour — from tender chicken thighs to crispy skin and tasty tsukune. Prices are super reasonable, making it easy to try a bit of everything. The staff were so friendly, and it felt like a true local spot. If you’re in Kyoto and craving yakitori with a drink, definitely check this place out. Affordable, delicious, and such a vibe!

We loved this place so much we went here 3 days in a row. The staff are so joyful and friendly. The yakitori is delicious. The chicken meatballs and garlic chicken thighs were our favorite, but we loved everything we ordered. We will miss them and their food so much when we go home!

Lively restaurant, tasty skewers and friendly staff! They have English/Korean/Chinese menus available!

This place was busy when we arrived on Tuesday night, but we were quick to get a table. Such a cozy atmosphere with a local feel; the waitress seemed to know one of the customers. I haven’t had a lot of yakitori in my life, but this has been the best so far. I loved the charcoal smokiness, and the meat was always juicy rather than dry. The spicy pork belly is a little bit on the saltier side, but the star of the show was green onion with chicken (forgot what I was called but it’s the first option on the Sauce section). Next was the grilled energy that was a favorite. Cucumber salad was a great starter — fresh though a bit on the saltier side. This is one of the favorite restaurants we’ve tried in Japan! We tried a good number now (15-20?)

Cafe style restaurant, the pasta was superb Recommend the tofu one (better if set). The staff was nice.

I found this restaurant when I visited Arashiyama. The decor was very relaxing, and the food really surprised me. The flavors seemed simple at first, but it was so delicious. I especially loved the tofu spaghetti, which I understand is likely a local dish from Saga. I would definitely go back if I have the chance to visit Arashiyama again.

I had the tofu pasta at Café Saganoyu – served with a small, thoughtful guide on how to enjoy the dish to the fullest. It was a flavorful experience full of new impressions: green tea salt, yuzu pepper, and an especially creamy tofu. The atmosphere is relaxed, the staff friendly – a perfect place to unwind and enjoy good food.

This place is one of my favorite restaurants we ever visited in Japan. Apart from the absolutely delicious foods we had, I am blown away by the history and architecture. I love their intention behind preserving this old bathhouse and incorporating it into the design and aesthetic of the restaurant. It is so beautiful and rich. I thoroughly enjoyed walking around the restaurant and basking in all of its glory. The servers were attentive and kind. The food was delicious. The atmosphere is priceless. There’s something to say about incorporating old architecture and elements into new design, and I am so thankful to have had the opportunity to admire their work.

Good drinks. Cookies are also delicious. The place is so cozy.

The food was so incredibly good! I had the tofu pasta and cleaned the bowl, it was so yummy. We highly recommend it!

This cafe is located in a old public bath house and they have renovated it into a cozy and homely cafe with many white wash feel! The only thing that it was a - for me is that the pancake came out too dry and it was hard to cut and chew. I just hope that is a one time thing and will be better when I come again next time.

(Translated by Google) I found out they have a branch in Kyoto, so I went there for the first time. Saika Ramen is quite filling, so I ordered a small, thinking it would be the normal size. Sure enough, I was right. I tried the soup first, but it felt different and I couldn't help but scratch my head. The main branch's ramen was sure to have more punch. It was also different from the food stall. It was more refined and lighter in flavor than Tenri Stamina Ramen, but it was oily, with less garlic and less spiciness, which I can't help but find a bit off. However, the vegetables were a little firm, not cooked through and limp like Tensta, which I liked. The noodles were also firm and had a nice chewy texture. It was a little different from what I get in Nara, but with plenty of vegetables, I could enjoy it for a long time, and I thought it was pretty tasty in its own way. The feeling of fullness in my stomach after the meal and the smell rising from my stomach were the same as in Nara, and I didn't feel hungry for hours. (Original) 京都にもあることを知って、初めて行ってみた。 彩華ラーメンは腹にどっしり来るので、小が普通サイズだろうと注文。案の定、これが正解だった。 まずスープを飲むが、なんか違って首を傾げた。本店ではもっとパンチがあったはず。屋台のとも違う。天理スタミナラーメンよりは上品であっさりとした味ではあるけど、油っこいしニンニク弱めで辛さも控えめ、ちょっと違和感が否めない。だが、野菜は少し固めで、天スタのように火が通ってシナシナで不味い感じではないので、私の好みであった。麺も、ハリがあって歯ごたえはいいかんじ。奈良で食べるのとは何か違うが、野菜たっぷりで長く楽しめるし、まあこれはこれで普通に美味しいと思った。 なお、食後の腹に溜まった感、腹から湧き出る匂いの感じは、奈良と同じで、何時間も空腹感を感じなかった。

(Translated by Google) It was around 1:30pm on a weekend, and I waited about 30 minutes. The restaurant itself isn't very big, so I thought it was unavoidable, but when I entered there were a few empty seats. Maybe it's because they're busy? I'm not sure. I always go to the main branch, but this was my first time at the Yahata branch. Compared to the main branch, the taste was salty and unnecessarily strong, and there seemed to be less soup. I don't think I'll be back. (Original) 週末の13：30頃でしたが30分ほど待ちました。 お店自体が大きくないので仕方ないのかと思いましたが、入店すると空き席がちらほら。 手が回らない？からなのかわかりませんが。 いつも本店に行くのですが、今回初めて八幡店に来ました。 本店に比べて、味が塩辛い、無駄に濃いうえ、スープも少なめに感じました。 次はもうないかな。

(Translated by Google) I have eaten Ayaka Ramen in Nara before, but this is my first visit to the Yawata branch. I went at noon, and there was a long wait. I get the impression that there are many customers who want to eat heartily. The price is higher than I expected. Honestly, if I was going to spend this much money, I'd rather go to another store. (Original) 彩華ラーメンは以前に奈良で食べたことありますが、八幡店は初訪問です。 昼時に行きましたが、結構待ちました。 客層はガッツリ食べたい感じのお客さんが多い印象です。お値段は思ってたより高めです。 正直、これだけお金出すなら別のお店に行きたいです。

(Translated by Google) I came to eat Saika Ramen for the first time in a while. I arrived around 11:45 and was surprised to see a line already outside. I ordered thick-cut thigh char siu ramen and gyoza. The ramen is slightly spicy and goes well with beer. The gyoza was also delicious. (Original) 久しぶりに彩華ラーメンを食べにきました。 11:45くらいに着いたのですが、すでに外に並んでいたのでびっくりです。 厚切りモモチャーシューラーメンと餃子を注文しました。ピリ辛でビールに合うラーメンです。餃子も美味しかったです。

(Translated by Google) I visited on May 13th and it was closed. It took me 2 hours to get there. I guess they were short on staff. I wish Shiga had this ramen shop too. I'll come back again. Postscript: I visited on June 5th. It's been a while since I last ate there, and the taste is still the same and it's great. I hope they don't go out of business. (Original) 5月１３日に来訪したら臨時休業でした。2時間かけていったが。人員不足なんかい。。 滋賀にもこのラーメン屋あったらええのにって思いました また出直しです 追記6月5日来訪。久しぶりに食べて、やっぱ変わらない味は最高です どうか潰れないことを願ってます。。

(Translated by Google) The noodles were okay, nice and chewy. The broth and toppings were really subpar. I usually enjoy a bite or two of soy sauce ramen, but the flavor was strange. It tasted spicy, sweet, soy sauce, oily, and not too salty. I really don't recommend it. (Original) 麵體ok是好吃有彈性那種 湯頭跟配料真不不及格 平常吃醬油拉麵還能品嚐上一兩口 味道很奇怪 吃起來有辣 甜醬油？ 油 不太鹹.. 真心不推薦

(Translated by Google) I've been to several stores, and I'm sorry to say that it's disappointing. The main store in Higashi Osaka is better... Everyone has different tastes, so it's hard to say... This is just my personal opinion. (Original) 何何軒か、行ってるが、申し訳ないが残念。 本店、東大阪の方が。。。 人それぞれ、好みが違うので、何とも。。。 あくまで、個人的意見です。

Went just to get some Aviation omamori. A short walk from the train station. Small but very cute

There are three Temples in it. First one is the flying god's temple. The second one is the flying forerunners' temple. The last one is the healthy god's temple.

(Translated by Google) Visited in July 2025 A shrine I've always wanted to visit Founded by Ninomiya Chuhachi, the father of Japanese aviation, to commemorate those lost in aviation accidents and offer prayers for safety. The grounds are compact, but there's an airplane floating in the chozuya (water purification fountain). Propellers, engine models, votive plaques... everywhere you look, the love of aviation is evident! Amulets and related merchandise are available at the gift shop. I came here to receive a goshuin (temple stamp)! There are also original goshuin (temple stamp) books in collaboration with ANA. There are many goshuin (temple stamps) available...they even have one stamp for each collaboration! You can also get your own custom goshuin (temple stamp) featuring the Blue Impulse, etc.! (Each has a fee.) It's hard to choose what to get! Free parking is available in the basement below the worship hall! (Original) 2025年7月参拝 前から伺いたかったお社 航空事故で亡くなった方々を 慰霊し、安全と祈願をする為…日本飛行機の父、二宮忠八創建 境内は、コンパクトですが…手水舎に飛行機浮いています プロペラやエンジン模型、絵馬…どこを見ても 飛行機愛 です❗ 授与所に御守り、関連商品もあり 御朱印を戴きに来ました❗ オリジナル御朱印帳ANAコラボもあります 御朱印も沢山あり…コラボには1体押してくれています❗ その他、ブルーインパルスなどを 別に押す 自分ながらの 御朱印が出来ます✨ (各々料金あり)切り絵など沢山で迷います 駐車場は、拝殿下の地下に、無料駐車場あります❗

(Translated by Google) My cousin lives in Germany and returns home every year to take care of her aunt, so I visit the shrine to pray for her safety since I fly often. The exterior is covered with a concrete wall and blends in with the surrounding residential area, and since it doesn't have the typical gate structure of a shrine, it's easy to pass by without noticing it at first glance. There is a parking lot for about 3 to 4 cars underground, and the grounds are small, but it is a unique shrine with museum-like elements, including an open-air display of airplane engines and a museum related to airplanes. (Original) 従姉がドイツ在住で毎年叔母の介護に帰省するので飛行機によく乗るためその安全祈願に参拝。外観がコンクリートの塀で覆われてて周辺の住宅街の景色と同化しており、いわゆる神社らしい門構えではないので、一見気付かず素通りしてしまう。 駐車場は地下に3～4台分ほどあり境内は狭いが飛行機のエンジンが露天展示してあり、また飛行機にまつわる資料館もあったりして博物館的な要素もある個性的な神社。

(Translated by Google) I've been to this shrine a few times. Plane passengers always stop by here 😌 I prayed and got a paper cutout goshuin and three Blue Impulse acrylic stand gachas, and my son drew his fortune and it was great luck! We headed to Osaka Castle Park, confident that the flight would be safe 😄 (Original) 何回かいったことある神社です。飛行機のりが必ずの訪れる😌 お参りして切り絵の御朱印とブルーインパルスのアクスタガチャ3つゲット、 息子がおみくじを引いて大吉！きっと無事飛行出来ると大阪城公園へ向かいました😄

(Translated by Google) I went there as part of a stamp rally. It was an interesting and unusual shrine related to airplanes. You can make a paper airplane out of your fortune slip and fly it, and there are also airplane engines and the nose of a Zero fighter plane, so it's fun for both airplane enthusiasts and non-plane enthusiasts. (Original) スタンプラリーの一環で行きました。飛行機にまつわる珍しい神社で面白かったです。おみくじを紙飛行機にしてとばしたり、飛行機のエンジンや零戦の機首などあり、飛行機好きの人は勿論、そうでない人もたのしめます。

(Translated by Google) : The god of flight is Nigihayahi-no-Mikoto. As it is a shrine dedicated to airplanes, it was founded in 1915, which is quite young (for a shrine). Due to the size of the site, a salvaged Zero fighter engine and an F-104 Starfight engine are stored here. I think the Zero fighter engine is probably "Sakae". The torii gate is made of duralumin, the worship hall is in the style of a Parthenon, everything is so innovative! I shouted in my head. There is a fee to enter the museum. There will probably be no one at the counter, so just ring the bell and pay 300 yen as an offering. It's not a large museum, but I think you'll be more than worth the money if you go in. Over 1,000 models! There are also many materials providing detailed information about Ninomiya Chuhachi. (Original) 飛行の神様といえば邇芸速日命（にぎはやひ　のみごと）。飛行機の神社ですので、創建は1915年、（神社にしては）かなり若い。 敷地面積の関係で、引き上げた零戦のエンジンとF-104スターファイトのエンジンが保管されてます。零戦のエンジン、多分「栄」と思います。 鳥居はジュラルミン、パルテノン風拝殿、何から何まで斬新すぎるよ！と心の中で叫んでました。 資料館は有料です。 窓口で人がいないと思いますので、ベルを押して、初穂料として300円をしはらってください。大きい博物館ではないが、入ればそのお金の価値以上の感動を味わえると思います。 模型1000点以上！ 二宮忠八についても詳しく紹介される資料がたくさんあります。

We stopped here on our way to Kyoto. Great place to stop to refill water bottles, grab a cold drink or two, and soft serve ice cream. We went up the tower for a 360 view of the surroundings.

Has so much potential to be better. Popular with cyclists, the place has more scope to offer better amenities, particularly a Cafe or coffee shop.

Good resting spot for cyclers

(Translated by Google) 2025.04.04 Between Tennozan and Otokoyama, the Kizugawa, Ujigawa, and Katsura rivers merge to form the Yodo River. You can also clearly see the old battlefield of Mt. Tenno and the area where Yodo Castle was located. This observation tower is worth climbing. What's more, I got it for free! (Original) 2025.04.04 天王山と男山の間で木津川、宇治川、桂川が合流し淀川となる。天王山の 古戦場や淀城があった辺りもよく見える。 この展望塔は登る価値があるわ。おまけにタダときたもんだ！

(Translated by Google) Visited on April 14, 2025. If you come to Beige Dike to enjoy the cherry blossoms, you can come to the tower and overlook the cherry blossom forest on the dike from a high place. It is very spectacular. (Original) 2025/4/14到訪，來背割堤賞櫻的話可以過來塔上從高處俯瞰整個堤壩上的櫻花林，十分壯觀

(Translated by Google) The top floor offers a 360-degree panoramic view, and the breeze from the river is soothing. You can also see the Sewari Embankment, so during the cherry blossom season, the pink Sakuragawa River appears between the Kizugawa River and the Ujigawa River. There is a fee during the cherry blossom viewing season, but I think it's worth the climb. (Original) 最上階は、３６０度パノラマが広がっていて、川面から吹き抜ける風も心地よいです。背割堤も一望できるので桜のシーズンは、木津川、宇治川の間に、ピンク色の桜川が現れます。花見シーズンは有料ですが、登ってみる価値ありだと思います。

(Translated by Google) We highly recommend that you try climbing during the cherry blossom season. It's like taking an elevator to the top and slowly descending one floor at a time. It's very nice to see not only the full view of the cherry blossoms on the Sewari Embankment, but also various places in Kyoto City. I think 300 yen is more than worth it. (Original) 桜シーズンの時に、是非登ってみることをおすすめします。 エレベーターで、上に行きゆっくりと1階ずつ降りていく感じです。 背割堤の桜の全貌はもちろん、京都市内の色々な場所も見られて、とてもいいです。 300円は十二分にお値打ちだと思います。

Beautiful views of Kyoto off in the distance. Nice quiet location with a cable way to the summit!

The best place in Kyoto in 2024 I was visited this historical place OTOKOYAMA observatory I was really surprised and impressive to see this place in autumn season everybody please come this place in autumn October November December this time this place is very wonderful and wow also please subscribe my channel Ripon in Japan日本🇯🇵

Place where to see Full view of kyoto city 🏙️

(Translated by Google) Even though I haven't been able to go yet this year, I feel so grateful to have received such kind words on my birthday. I hear that doodles are deleted once during the year-end and New Year holidays. We have space early in the new year. When you pay the donation and record it at the temple, You will receive a thank you postcard. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to go back to basics on my birthday 😊 (Original) 今年はまだ行けてないのに誕生日に有難いお言葉を授けて下さり身の引き締まる思いです。年末年始にらくがきは一度消されると聞きます。年明け早々はスペースがあります。お堂で協力金を納め記帳すると 有難いハガキが頂けます。誕生日に初心に戻るキッカケをありがとうございます😊

(Translated by Google) This is a temple of the Myoshinji sect of the Rinzai sect. It is famous as a graffiti temple. I also had a goshuin written. (Original) 臨済宗妙心寺派のお寺です。落書寺として有名です。 御朱印も書いて頂きました。

(Translated by Google) This is a temple where you write your wishes on the inside walls of Daikoku-do (votive tablets) and pray. Although only the doodles attract attention, the main image of the shrine, ``Hashiri Daikoku,'' is also rare, and this season it was covered in a stunning yellow ginkgo carpet. (Original) 大黒堂内部の壁を絵馬代わりに願いごとを書いて祈願するお寺さんです。 らくがきばかりが注目されますが、本尊の「走り大黒」も珍しですし、今の季節は見事なイチョウの黄色い絨毯になっていました。

(Translated by Google) This is definitely one of the most interesting spots in Kyoto. Since Daikoku-no-do Hall was built in 1955, it has been nicknamed ``Doodle Temple'' because if you write your wish on the wall of the hall, it will come true. I see, the stone monument in the garden says to believe in God and write your wishes. There is a horizontal pine tree that reminds me of the old pine tree at Zenmineji Temple, a large ginkgo tree, and a stone Buddha statue for memorial services. Unfortunately, today is a weekday, so you can only take a walk.We recommend visiting on the designated Saturday and Sunday. I'm sure you can predict the story of 🌟5 there. (Original) ここも京都の面白スポットに必ず上がる。昭和32年、大黒のお堂が建てられて以来、お堂の壁に自分の願い事を書くと叶えられるということから「らくがき寺」 とも言われるそうじゃ。 成る程、庭の石碑には神を信じて願いを書けとある。 善峰寺の老松を思い出させる横に伸びた松、大きな銀杏、他にも供養のための石佛様もある。 残念だが今日は平日、散策のみに終る、拝観は指定日の土日曜に訪れる事をお薦めします。そこにはきっと🌟５のお話が予測出来るから。

(Translated by Google) ``Doodle Temple'' where you can write your wishes on the Daikokudo wall, which is a little unusual. It is about a ten minute walk from Iwashimizu Hachimangu Station. (Original) ちょっと珍しい大黒堂の壁にお願い事を書く、「らくがき寺」 石清水八幡宮駅からも徒歩十分程である。

(Translated by Google) I scribbled my wishes at Doodle Temple. I learned about it from ``Tottabi'' on YouTube. Doodles are 300 yen per person. (Original) らくがき寺で願い事をらくがきしてきました。youtubeの「とったび」で知りました。らくがき1人300円です。

(Translated by Google) I'm sure it's an ancient temple, but the lighthouses that line Shokado make it very dark and interesting!It's difficult to visit without prior knowledge. Most of all, I'm curious about the origin of the name "Doodle Temple"!Even though I'm a local resident, I don't know anything about it!It's a place that stands out now, but it's the home of Otokoyama Hachimangu Shrine. Octagonal Hall, which is a little further away, is also a must-see. There are various anecdotes. (Original) 昔からの寺に相違ないと思うが松花堂に並ぶ灯台もと暗しで興味津々!前もっての知識無しでは、訪問しづらい。なにより“落書き寺”名前由来が気になる!地元住民なのに、まったく知らない!今でこそ浮き立つ存在だが、男山八幡宮のお膝元。ちょっと離れた八角堂も、必見。いろんな逸話有り。

Nice Area

Nice Area....

(Translated by Google) It's bigger than I expected! There's a small children's area, and there's a trampoline, arcade, air hockey, and other things you'd find in a game center. There are karaoke booths, changing and photo spots, camping areas, and more, so you can play to the max! ! There are no toilets inside, so when you need to use the restroom, you have to put on your shoes and go outside to the restroom on the floor. 👟 There was a nursing space inside, but there was also one in the restroom on the floor! I think there was only one type of vending machine inside, but you can bring your own food, so if you forget to bring your own, there's a supermarket on the first floor where you can buy some. There was popcorn 🍿! ✨ There are also plenty of seats in the resting and eating area, which is very appreciated! ! (There are quite a few places with very few resting seats...) I'd like to come back! (Original) 予想以上に広くて良い！ 小さい子スペースもあるし、トランポリン、ゲーセン、エアホッケー、ゲームセンターにあるようなものもちらほらあり◎ カラオケボックスやお着替え&写真スポット、キャンプエリアなどたくさんあるので、MAX遊べます！！ 中にトイレは無いので、お手洗いの際は靴を履いて外に出てフロアにあるお手洗いへ👟 授乳スペースは中にもありましたが、フロアのお手洗いにもありました！ 自動販売機は1種類しか中にはなかったと思うのですが、持ち込みが可能なので、もし持参し忘れても一階にスーパーがあるのでそちらに買いに行けるのも◎ ポップコーン🍿がありました！✨ 休憩する食事スペースもかなり席があるので、その点もすごくありがたいです！！ (休憩席がすごく少ないところも結構あるので...) リピートしたいと思います！

(Translated by Google) It was nice that you could bring your own food and eat inside, and there was plenty of space to relax. It was nice that there were all kinds of toys and spaces to play. There wasn't much parking, and it was difficult to find a place to get a stroller up from the parking lot inside the building. (Original) 持ち込んで中でご飯も食べられるし、ゆっくりできるスペースも多くて良かったです。 いろんなジャンルのおもちゃや遊ぶスペースがあって良かったです。 駐車場が少なく、建物の中の駐車場からだとベビーカーが上がるところがなくて困りました。

(Translated by Google) Famire Yawata 3rd floor is now Kids US Land. It's close if you park on the 3rd floor of the multi-storey parking lot. Please see the photo for prices. Weekdays are cheaper. You can bring in food and drinks. You can come and go as many times as you like. There are also many desks where you can eat meals. A toilet is also located on the same floor. It was reserved almost on weekdays. It's great on a rainy day. I went with my 3-year-old, and he was so excited that it was so much fun. (Original) ファミレやわた3Fがキッズユーエスランドになってます。立体駐車場3Fに止めたら近いです。 料金は写真見てください。平日の方が安いです。 飲食物持ち込みOK。何度でも出入りOK。ご飯食べる机とかも沢山あります。トイレも同フロアにあります。平日ほぼ貸切でした。雨の日最高です。 3歳児と行きましたが、テンション上がりまくってそりゃもう楽しいですよね。

(Translated by Google) Today, dozens of groups from a kindergarten came, which made it difficult to play, which was a shame. If they had known from the beginning, they should have charged the hourly rate and explained it at the reception, but it felt like they just showed up. On normal weekdays, it's a really hidden gem. (Original) 今日はどこかの幼稚園の団体さんが何十人も来られて遊びにくかったので残念でした。 最初から分かっているなら1時間料金にしたし、受付で説明してほしかったですが、飛び込みでこられたような感じでした。 普段の平日はほんまに穴場です

(Translated by Google) I went with my two preschool boys and it was nice and spacious. It's perfect for days when the weather is bad. The good things about it are the size of the jungle gym and the free play of games, although it's a little old. I loved Taiko no Tatsujin and played it many times. There is a supermarket on the first floor, so it's easy to bring in snacks and drinks. The only bad thing about it is that the lighting is rather dark. It was as bright as the photo. After that, I felt that it was a little high considering the size. Overall, the kids enjoyed it so much that we will be repeating it. (Original) 未就学児2人の男児と行きましたが、ある程度広くてよかったです。天候が悪い日などに最適ですね。 よかった点はジャングルジムの広さと少し古いですがゲームのフリープレイ。太鼓の達人を気に入って何回もやっていました。1階がスーパーなので、お菓子や飲み物の持ち込みも簡単です。 いまいちな点は照明が暗めなとこですね。写真の通りの明るさでした。後は規模に対して若干高めかなと感じたこと。 総合的に考えると、子供達は大喜びだったのでリピートありです。

(Translated by Google) I visited the shrine on November 24, 2023. When it comes to autumn leaves in Yawata City, Iwashimizu Hachimangu Shrine is famous, but there are many other places to see autumn leaves in the surrounding area, one of which is Zenpoji Temple. The precincts are not very large, but you can enjoy the beautiful autumn leaves. (Original) 2023年11月24日に参拝しました。 八幡市の紅葉といえば、石清水八幡宮が有名ですが、周辺には他にも紅葉の見所が多数あり、その内のひとつがこちらの善法律寺です。 境内はそれほど広くないですが、綺麗な紅葉が楽しめます。

(Translated by Google) It is a temple where you can see the garden, and there is no admission fee, so it was easy to enjoy. The autumn leaves were at their peak and many people came to see them. It seems like the garden is still expanding, so it's a temple that I'm looking forward to seeing in the future. I reduced one star because I have high hopes for the future. (Original) お庭を拝見できるお寺で、拝観料もないので、気軽に楽しめました。紅葉が丁度見頃で何人も見に来ていらしてました。お庭はまだまだ拡張しているようなので、今後も楽しみなお寺ですね。今後に期待して、星を１つ減らしました。

(Translated by Google) Visited in the first week of December During the Kamakura period, Zenpoji Miyakiyoshi, who was the inspector of Iwashimizu Hachimangu Shrine, turned his residence into a temple and invited Jisso Shonin from Nara Todaiji Temple to open the temple. During the Muromachi period, Yoshiko, the daughter of Zenpoji Michikiyo, married Shogun Yoshiaki Ashikaga and apparently became the mother of the third Shogun Yoshimitsu. Ryoko donated her favorite autumn-foliage tree to Zenpo-ji Temple, and because there are about 100 autumn-foliage trees within the temple grounds, it is also called Momiji-dera Temple. (Original) 12月初週に訪問 鎌倉時代に石清水八幡宮の検校であった善法寺宮清が自分の邸宅を寺とし、奈良東大寺より実相上人を招いて開山 室町時代には、善法寺通清の娘・良子が将軍足利義詮に嫁ぎ、3代将軍義満の母となったらしい 良子は善法律寺へ自分の好きな紅葉の樹を寄進、境内に約100本の紅葉があることからもみじ寺とも呼ばれてるとか

(Translated by Google) I visited for a special visit. The temple, commonly known as Momiji-dera, has connections with Shogun Ashikaga, especially since Miyakiyoshi's great-grandson Ryoko married the second shogun Yoshiakira and gave birth to the third shogun Yoshimitsu. It seems that he has visited many times. The maple leaves are beautiful, but during the special visit, we were given a detailed explanation of the statues of Hachiman Daibosatsu, Aizen Myoo, Fudo Myoo, Amida Nyorai, Jizo Bosatsu, Eleven-faced Thousand-Armed Kannon, and more. You can't take pictures inside, but I was satisfied. (Original) 特別拝観で訪れました。 通称もみじ寺と呼ばれる寺で、足利将軍とゆかりがあり、特に宮清のひ孫である良子が二代将軍義詮に嫁いで三代将軍義満を産んだことから、義満・義教・義政と、歴代の将軍が何度も参詣しているようです。 もみじもきれいですが、特別拝観では八幡大菩薩像、愛染明王像、不動明王像、阿弥陀如来像、地蔵菩薩像、十一面千手観音像などを丁寧に説明してもらいました。内部の写真撮影はできませんが、満足できました。

(Translated by Google) It is famous nationwide as a temple that enshrines the dragon god, the guardian deity of the sea. This temple is also associated with Ashikaga Yoshimitsu. (Original) 海の守護神、龍神を祀るお寺として全国的に有名だそうです。 足利義満とも所縁のあるお寺です。

(Translated by Google) A temple famous among locals as Momiji Temple in Yawata I went to see the autumn leaves. The entrance is a little far from the road The atmosphere is already nice from the gate. As you pass through the gate, the blue autumn leaves are thick There are some autumn leaves that turn red even in summer. The contrast between green, red, and blue sky is beautiful. It was closed that day so I couldn't go inside. As you head toward the grave on the left, you will see five ring towers lined up. This was also beautiful together with the blue autumn leaves. I thought this would all turn red in the fall season. That would be amazing. Recently, it is only lit up at night once a year. Since it seems that I would love to visit you again in the fall. (Original) 八幡の紅葉寺として地元民に有名なお寺に 青紅葉狩りに行ってきました。 入り口は道路から少し距離がありますが 門構えで雰囲気が既に素敵です。 門をくぐると青紅葉がうっそうとして 夏でも赤くなる紅葉も少しあり 緑・赤・青空のコントラストが美しいです。 この日は閉まっていて中には入れませんでしたが 左手のお墓に向かうと五輪塔が並んでいて これがまた青紅葉と相まり美しかったです。 これが秋シーズンには全て赤くなると思ったら すごいでしょうね。 最近は年に1度だけ夜のライトアップも されているようなので、 是非秋にもまたお邪魔したいです。

(Translated by Google) In November 2021, there was a special opening of the main hall, and I was able to visit. A volunteer gave us an explanation inside the hall. They also wrote a temple seal for us. There is a fee to enter the main hall, but it seems that you can enter the temple grounds for free. Normally, you need to make a reservation to visit the main hall, but around this time in November, there are two days where you can visit without making a reservation. (Original) 令和3年11月、本堂の特別公開があり拝観しました。本堂内でボランティアの方の説明をしていただきました。御朱印も書いていただきました。本堂は有料ですが境内へは無料で入れるようです。 本堂の拝観は普段は予約が必要なようですが、11月のこの頃二日ほどは予約なしで拝観出来るようです。

(Translated by Google) This is a Rinzai sect temple located in a residential area. It used to be a training temple for nuns, but because Daruma-do, a men's training temple, is nearby, it seems that the nuns' training temple has changed to within Kyoto City. We currently have a male chief priest. The main hall is located inside the Hojo, so it is difficult to tell where it is from the outside, but if you approach the Benzaiten-do area and face the direction of the Hojo, you will be right in front of the main image of Amida Nyorai. For some reason, there are stone Buddha statues of Kobo Daishi and En no Gyoto, but it seems that the Danka brought them from an abandoned temple and enshrined them here. Although the precincts are surrounded by greenery, it is a very clean and pleasant temple. (Original) 住宅街にある臨済宗のお寺です。 かつては尼僧の修行寺でしたが、すぐ近くに男性の修行寺の達磨堂があるため京都市内に尼僧の修行寺は変わったそうです。 今は男性の住職さんがおられます。 本堂は方丈の中にあるため外からではどこにあるのかわかりませんが、弁財天堂辺りで方丈の方角を向いてお参りすればご本尊の阿弥陀如来の正面辺りになります。 なぜか弘法大師や役行者の石仏がありますが、檀家さんが、廃寺から持ってこられてお祀りされているそうです。 緑に囲まれた境内ですが、とても綺麗にされていて気持ちがいいお寺です。

(Translated by Google) This is a Zen temple that seems to be rare in this area. I feel so refreshed and full of good vibes❗️ (Original) この辺りでは珍しいらしい禅寺です。 とてもスッキリした良い気に満ちています❗️

(Translated by Google) This is a temple where there is a grave where the ancestors of my Yamada family are buried. Although it is small, it is very clean. The restrooms are also clean! However, if you go there after sunset, there are almost no lights on the road to the cemetery, which can make you feel nervous. This is because there is a crow ornament placed in a lantern in the middle of the path. (It might be more accurate to say that it is stuck) When I saw it in the dim light, I thought it was real and felt really scared. However, the cemetery was very bright on the contrary. I'm sure it's a nice cemetery. If you think it might be a bit uncomfortable in the dark, don't visit! I thought so, but I was able to give incense sticks without any problem even though I was a scared person! In fact, we were able to talk slowly. (Original) うちの山田家のご先祖さまが眠っているお墓があるお寺です。小さいですが、とても綺麗にされています。お手洗いも綺麗ですよ！ ただ、日の入り後に行くと、霊園までの道に灯りがほとんどなく、ビクビクしてしまいます。 何故なら、小道の真ん中辺りカラスの置物が灯籠に置かれています。（突き刺さっていると言った方が正しいかもしれない） 薄暗い中見ると本物かと思い、本当に怖い思いをしました。 でも、霊園はそれに反してとっても明るかったです。きっと、いい霊園なんだと思います。 真っ暗でちょっと気持ち悪いかも、、、と思ったらお参りはやめよう！と思っていましたが、怖がりな私1人でも問題なくお線香をあげることが出来ました！むしろ、ゆっくりお話しできました。

(Translated by Google) I often visit this temple because my family's graves are in the cemetery. The cemetery is maintained very well. Please feel free to consult with us regarding grave closures and memorial services. (Original) 家族のお墓がこのお寺の墓地にあるのでよく訪れます。お墓のメンテナンス、とてもよくして下さっています。 墓じまいやご法事の相談にも気軽に乗って下さいますよ。

Kappa used to be better. The fish was not bad, just lacking. Their pudding is still excellent.

Best of the best

(Translated by Google) 23.10.23 This is my first visit to the store. Since the Hirakata store was closed, I visited a nearby store. 😅 When I entered the store, I was surprised to see that there was an air curtain installed at the entrance, and I was surprised by the sudden breeze. 😁 Since I arrived at the store after 3pm, the store was relatively empty, and there were more customers returning home than visitors, and I could hear the sound of the payment machine quite a bit. The system was such that you sat at a designated seat, ordered using a tablet, and the sushi was not passed around in the revolving lane, but the ordered items were delivered to you on the lane. I felt that they were more careful about hygiene than the Hirakata store, but I was surprised that you could order ``Gari'' on a tablet (¥0 yen). 😅 (Original) 23.10.23初来店です。 枚方店が閉店したので近場の店舗に伺いました。😅 入店時に驚いたのが入り口にエアーカーテンが実装されており、突然風が吹いてきてビックリしました。😁 来店時間が15時過ぎということもあり、店内は比較的空いており、来客より帰宅客の方が多く、支払いの機械音が結構聞こえていました。 指定された席に着座し、タブレットで注文、回転レーンに寿司は回っておらず注文した物がレーンで配送されるシステムでした。 枚方店より衛生面では気をつけている感じが非常に良かったのですが「ガリ」までタブレット注文(￥0円)なのは驚きを隠せませんでした。😅

(Translated by Google) Is this restaurant okay? It was at that level. We were seated at the counter, but we couldn't pull out our chairs!? Why? The floor was so sticky that the chair legs were stuck to the floor 😱 The toppings were soggy, with dried-out fillets and meat... The presentation was a mess... Things weren't cooked according to the menu... Something different from what I ordered was brought out... When I ordered a clam red miso soup but got a clam red miso soup, I called the waiter and asked for a replacement. They didn't seem to apologize, just said they'd replace it with a blank expression and took it away, and after a long wait the new one came out. Were they motivated? Or was there for some reason no one who could cook properly? Or no one who could serve customers? It was a complete mess... There were other angry people too. Ah, I'm never going there again. I was so disappointed I wanted my money back. (Original) このお店大丈夫？のレベルでした。カウンター席だったけど、椅子が引けない！？なぜ？床がネチャネチャで椅子の脚くっついてました😱ネタ、ショボショボで干からびた切身に肉…盛り付けメチャクチャ…メニュー通りの調理がされてないものが出てくる…注文したものと違うものが流れてくる…青さの赤だし頼んだのにアサリの赤だしが出てきたときは、流石に定員さん呼んで交換を依頼。特に詫びる様子もなく無の表情で交換しますとの一言で下げていって、新しいものは結構待ってからシュ〜と流れてきました。 やる気あるのか？それともなんらかの事情でちゃんと調理できる人がいなかったのか？接客できる人がいなかったのか？なんせメチャクチャでしたね…他にも怒ってる方いましたし。 あーもう2度と行かないです。ガッカリ金返せレベルでした

(Translated by Google) The inside of the store is clean and the sushi comes out smoothly after ordering. The customer service of the employees is also good. However, in order to be careful about hygiene, there was no sushi going around on the conveyor, which was sad for the generation that knew the conveyor belt sushi restaurants of yesteryear. I guess this is also a sign of the times. (Original) 店内は清潔で綺麗お寿司も注文後スムーズに出てきます。従業員さんの接客も良いです。ただ衛生に気を付ける為、コンベアを回っている寿司はゼロなのが往年の回転寿司を知っている世代には寂しかったですね。これも時代なのでしょうが。

(Translated by Google) Wow, that's terrible!! They made it too soft to hide the lack of rice, so it fell apart quickly... If you put even a little bit of heavy topping on it, it won't maintain its shape and falls apart! lol Do you really think that just having toppings on vinegared rice makes it sushi? You should stop making fun of customers and sushi!! (Original) いやぁ、ひどいねぇ！！ ご飯が少ないのをごまかす為に、柔らかく握っているせいで、すぐにボロボロと…。 ちょっとでも重いネタを乗せたら、形状を維持できずに崩壊！w 酢飯の上にネタが乗っているだけで、寿司だとでも思っているのか？ 客と寿司をバカにするのも、大概にせいよ！！
