I need to cut out a day of the Kyoto portion of my trip. Here’s what I have planned.. any advice on what can be done in the same day/ can be missed? I want to make sure I spend enough time to enjoy each place and I tried to section by location. If it’s not possible to do it all in one day less, what would you recommend I cut out?
I’ve seen on here a lot that Kiyomizu Temple, Kinkaku-ji, and Fushimi Inari should all be done first thing in the morning, which is why they’re on separate days, but am very open to suggestions! I’m also open to reconfiguring my trip to allow for the below itinerary; I’m just trying to shorten the trip as a whole because hotels cost money. TIA experts of Reddit!
Day 1: Kiyomizu Temple, Nijo Castle, Maruyama Park, Nishiki Market
Day 2: Fushimi Inari, Toji Temple, Sanjusangedo Temple
Day 3: Kinkaku-ji, Kitano Tenmangu Shrine, Nanzen-ji Temple, Philosopher’s Path
Day 4: Day trip to Osaka
Day 5: Day trip to Nara
Day 6: Adashino Temple, Tenryu-ji (Depart on this day)
