Hi,
We will be in Kyoto for 2 full days and though we have very less time, we want to see must see places. We will be there in last week of April. I gone through lot of posts and tried to narrow down my choices, what can I see and what can I miss. Staying near Kyoto station, I see one possibility as below. For us, must see is Arashiyama Bamboo forest and probably deer park in Nara. Rest others are based on posts. Please feel free to exclude anything from this, and/or include anything you would want to, to make it feasible.
First Day : Kyoto Station to Nara, visit Nobori-oji Street (for deer) – Noborioji Park – Daibutsu-den Hall – Nigatsu-do Hall – return to Nara station and back to Kyoto. While returning to Kyoto, get down for Fushimi Inari Shrine. Visit this place before dark and back to hotel near Kyoto station.
Second Day : Kyoto Station – Arashiyama Bamboo forest – Kinkaku-ji Temple – Nanzen-ji Temple – Kiyomizudera Temple – Sanjūsangen-dō – back to Kyoto station and hotel.
We are two adults, but with one kid, so lot of walk is not feasible. Wherever possible we will use public transport or taxi. Please advice if this sequence will make sense via light walk/train/taxi.
Our interest is – photography, landscapes, etc.
Thanks
