Has anyone done the TravelCaffeine 3-day Best of Kyoto Itinerary?


I’m thinking of attempting this [itinerary](https://www.travelcaffeine.com/3-day-kyoto-japan-itinerary/) for our Kyoto trip, but day-1 seems VERY ambitious and all these Temples seems like a lot. Has anyone here done or tried to do all of day one?

Day One:

* Kiyomizudera Temple (UNESCO World Heratige Site)
* Higashiyama Historic District
* Kodaiji Temple (via Ninen-zaka)
* Kennin-ji Temple
* Yasaka Shrine,/Maruyama Park
* Chionin Temple
* Nanzenji Temple (Aquaduct)
* Eikando Temple
* Heian Shrine (if cherries are blooming)
* Kurodani Temple/Shinnyodo Temple/Yoshida Shrine
* Path of Philosophers (aka Tetsugaku-no-Michi)
* Honen-in Temple
* Silver Pavilion Ginkakuji Temple

I’m thinking it will be too much temple for my kids (11 & 17). What are the absolute must-sees on this day, and what are some other options in the area that aren’t Temples in case the kids need something different?
