I'll be in Kyoto from 9/8-9/13. I had booked a week for Kyoto and day trips to the surrounding areas, but I'm worried that the heat will make it uncomfortable to visit many shrines and temples. I do want to visit some indoor activities like the Fukuda Art Museum, Pontocho, maybe the Samurai Museum, but does anyone have any suggestions for other things to do to avoid overheating?

This article I found suggests some of the shrines/temples will be cooler than the rest of the city, and I definitely wanted to visit Kibune/Kurama, but does anyone know if they're actually a comfortable temperature during the summer?
