Kyoto 1 night 2 days: My first time in Kyoto
Efficiently follow the classic route from Kiyomizu-dera Temple, Senbon Torii (thousand torii gates), the bamboo forest, to Kinkaku-ji Temple. Day 1: Fushimi to Higashiyama and Gion; Day 2: Arashiyama to Kinkaku-ji Temple.
The Senbon Torii (thousand torii gates) are less crowded in the morning, which is great!
