This is my first trip to Kyoto, where the four seasons are distinct, and I took a tour with a group tour. I took a tour bus and visited Kinkakuji Temple, Ginkakuji Temple, Kiyomizu Temple, Nijo Castle and Arashiyama and other classic maple viewing spots on the tour bus. Up and down, in fact, I don't know where the car has been. The memories of travel are all memories of scenic spots.
When I went to Kyoto again for the maple viewing itinerary, I already had a few experience bases of free travel for cherry blossom viewing in Kyoto. Of course, I also used the self-service travel method to arrange the maple viewing itinerary.Through self-planning of the travel route and transportation, the travel experience has changed from the "point memory" of the group to the "line planning" of the trip. After walking through the itinerary in person, you can truly feel the experience of self-service travel. ".If you like, learn more about the humanities, history and geography of each region, so that the plane experience can be sublimated into a new three-dimensional experience, and you may become an in-depth tourist.

The first wave of Kyoto's maple viewing journey is to choose the next stop of the Kyoto Station, Kujo Station, and choose to use the MRT with bus transportation to quickly go to various attractions.On the first day of the itinerary, take the bus directly in front of the hotel and plan to visit the scenic spots in the Dongshan District, where the temples are clustered from south to north; on the second day, in accordance with the time of the Beiye Tianman Temple Antique Market, the MRT is the main means of transportation and the bus route is transferred Multiplication is still quite convenient.Next, let's take a look at the detailed itinerary introduction and article sharing!
Attractions Sharing and Transportation Introduction
抵達京都：JR(新大阪駅→京都駅，￥540/人，24分鐘)→京都観光二日乗車券(￥2,000/人)→地下鐵(京都駅K11→九条駅K12)→住宿(Sakura Terrace)
Itinerary description: Before starting the maple viewing trip in Kyoto, there is a two-day itinerary for maple viewing and ginkgo viewing in Osaka, so take a regular JR train to Kyoto and the journey will take less than half an hour.If you are coming directly from Kansai Airport, it is recommended to take the HARUKA Airport Express.Because all transportation is gathered at Kyoto Station, the hotel can choose to be around Kyoto Station, which is the best choice for transportation arrangements. If you consider issues such as funding and fullness, it is recommended to choose to pick up and drop off with luggage around the MRT station. More convenient.
This time I chose the Sakura Terrace Hotel, which is located at the Kujo Station Exit, the next station of Kyoto Station. The traffic is quite convenient. Although there are bus routes, but the number of routes is relatively small, I chose to buy the "Kyoto Sightseeing Two-Day Pass" at Kyoto Station. Unlimited rides on the subway and buses within two days, allowing the MRT and buses to match freely, making the journey smoother.The hotel is a little far away from Kyoto Station, which has already saved a lot of accommodation costs. At this time, don't be obsessed with saving transportation costs. It is convenient to take the MRT and the bus.

Itinerary description: Arrive in Kyoto on the first day. After settling in the hotel, it is not suitable to travel long distances to remote scenic spots, mainly to visit various temples in the Dongshan District.From south to north, there are endless cherry blossom and maple viewing spots in Dongshan District, and you can quickly shuttle between the various spots by bus.Of course, these famous cherry blossom and maple viewing spots close to the city often face a situation of overcrowding. This is a place that must be psychologically prepared. The day we visited Tofukuji Temple happened to be Sunday, and many tourist buses arrived. Fortunately everyone Quite orderly, quite lively, but it is impossible to enjoy the maple peacefully.
After coming out of the lively Tofukuji Temple, I planned to walk to Senyongji Temple to continue admiring the maple. After visiting Bishamondang Shrinji Temple, I happened to encounter a market event organized by the local Kyoto Aki Kiln Association in collaboration with local stores to promote Senyongji Temple. The works of the kiln are scattered in alleys and alleys and in front of various shops, which are quite rich in local characteristics, which surprises us and stays for a long time.Therefore, the real maple viewing trip at Quanyong Temple ends with passing by Quanyong Temple under the consideration of time. Of course, there is another reason that there is still a long way to walk to Quanyong Temple, which is to save physical strength.

Itinerary description: After the bustling Tofukuji Temple and the idle large pottery market, use the bus and subway to go to the Kejo Railway and Nanzenji area for a maple viewing journey in the evening to after sunset.There are many Zen temples in the Kejo area, represented by Nanzenji Temple. In fact, it is not an exaggeration to schedule a whole day's itinerary.When we are about to visit this place at sunset, we can only choose to go directly to the most distinctive waterway pavilion, then go astray and break into the Nanchanyuan, and stay there until after sunset.
Nanzenyuan is located behind Suirokaku. It is actually just a small garden, but for us who have just experienced the crowds of Tofukuji Temple, it can be said to be a paradise. The simple and small ponds and gardens are not many tourists. At this time, it really has a soothing effect, so I stayed from dusk to sunset. At this time, it is quite a quiet sigh for the maple appreciation. This is also the time that can be enjoyed by free travel.Next, go to Tianshou Temple to enjoy Ye Feng, of course, another queuing and rubbing shoulders.

Itinerary description: After finishing the itinerary to appreciate the night maple at Tianshou Temple, at this time, I just experienced the benefits of taking the subway. In the case of hungry, I can quickly go to Kyoto Station for food through the MRT.Choosing to go to the Ramen Path is of course a very affordable and unburdened choice. What's more, the Kyoto Station in the autumn season is about to welcome Christmas. The lighting landscaping, water dance performances, city night scenes and happy atmosphere in the station can all make People spend a good night time.

Itinerary description: The original plan for the second day is mainly in the Sanwei area in the morning. When returning in the afternoon, I will visit the antique market in Kitano Tenmangu Shrine. I also understand that it is difficult to arrange too much in the maple viewing itinerary filled with camera memory cards. Point of the trip.Considering that the antique market is only one day a month, and the temple is there every day, I chose to go directly to the antique market in Kitano Tenmangu Shrine in the morning, and also use the subway and bus transfer method. Breakfast is directly at the antique market. The various food stalls are resolved.
There was a little rain on the first day of the day, so the vendors and crowds were a bit sparse. After eating and eating to solve the breakfast, the antique market seemed not to be lively, and the Kitano Tenmangu Palace had already been around for a visit. Seeing the red maple announced at the ticket office outside the Mitoju on the left, you are welcome to buy tickets to visit inside, and there are even free refreshments, which is to visit the inside with the mentality of giving it a try. What I encountered is the most impressive reward of this trip Feng Youjing.After the maple viewing on both sides of the creek, there are also resting places for refreshments.
After a short break, the time was actually close to noon. When I walked out of Mitoi, I was faced with the bustling antique market stalls and crowds. Even the parking lot with beautiful ginkgo scenery was discovered. This is quite natural and lucky. Time point.

Itinerary description: The luckiest part of the whole day's itinerary is probably after visiting Mitoi and visiting the antique market. It started to rain heavily in Kyoto, and the trip to the Sanwei area originally planned to end.Although, I also doubt that even if it doesn't rain, there is no time to go.In the case of heavy rain, after passing by the famous Hirano Shrine, I had to look for a bus stop nearby and get back to Kyoto Station.Except for food nearby at Kyoto Station, only indoor itinerary can be arranged next, and indoor itinerary = shopping itinerary.
Yes, go to Yodobashi to buy the latest iPad mini Retina!At that time, when the Japanese currency was depreciating and Taiwan was not yet on the market, with confidence in the Apple operating system's direct built-in multi-language interface, global product warranty and maintenance, it directly snapped up the latest tablet computers.Eating, drinking, shopping and shopping can really relieve the trouble of raining during travel!

Original plan
According to the usual practice, let’s compare the original planned itinerary with the final itinerary. The biggest difference is still in the planned itinerary too much. In the cherry blossom and maple viewing itinerary that focuses on taking photos, it is inevitable that you will stop at various scenic spots for a long time. I knew it for a long time.The most critical point is how to choose between attractions when time is limited.
First, after all, the red leaves season is much longer than the cherry blossom season, and temple attractions are always there. Visiting the market that waits for no one every month is the first priority.The second point is that it is certainly necessary to visit the lively and crowded classic maple viewing spots, but some unique and secluded scenic spots can always make people feel calm and peaceful, even if the scale is small, it does not matter. There is no need to always pursue a large-scale maple viewing spot that wins by quantity.Please refer to the original planning content in the following.
