However, this is also a feature of Kyoto, with rice inside and tofu skin wrapped outside. In Fushimi Inari Taisha, foxes are regarded as messengers of gods, so there are many stone statues of foxes, as well as painted horses (prayer boards) in the shape of fox faces. Tamahime Okami probably refers to the fox fairy. A pouch with the nature of prayer.

It takes about an hour to walk around Fushimi Inari Shrine. The road is narrow and crowded with tourists, so it is quite strenuous to walk. After going down the mountain, there are many Japanese snacks and handicraft shops on the side of the main entrance of Fushimi Inari Shrine. The scene is very lively because of the large number of tourists.

Japanese handkerchiefs are a little expensive at 1 yen each, but they are great gifts. Japan's Shinkansen and subways frequently cross the city streets, and you can see the road blocked by railings from time to time. From the mobile phone map, Fushimi Inari Taisha is about kilometers away from Sanjusangendo Hall, and there is no direct subway or Shinkansen, considering that taking a taxi in Japan is too expensive.

So I decided to walk there. I encountered many shrines and distinctive Japanese residences along the way, so I especially recommend walking. Actually, I know nothing about Sanjusangendo, but I know it is worth a visit just by looking at the gate wall. I can't find any information about Hojuji Temple on Baidu or GOOGLE, which may be because there are too many scenic spots in Kyoto.

Therefore, few people pay attention to its existence. Sanjusangendo, also known as Lotus King Temple, may seem plain from the outside, but it has Buddhist statues and cultural relics listed as national treasures of Japan, especially the Thousand-armed Guanyin and the twenty-eight standing statues. The main hall dedicated to the Guanyin statue is one of the longest wooden buildings in Japan. Photography is not allowed inside the main hall.

Tickets are ¥ for adults, ¥ for students, and ¥ for children. Opening hours: early September:-:, mid-month to mid-month:-:. Transportation: Sanjusangendo Museum Station, Kyoto Bus Route, Route, and Route; Subway Keihan Main Line Shichijo Station. It must be said that Kyoto's transportation is very convenient. The center of Kyoto's transportation is at JR Kyoto Station, JR Line.

The Kintetsu Railway and the Municipal Subway Karasuma Line both pass through here. Outside the station are stops for city buses, long-distance buses, and overnight buses. Inside the station, there is a comprehensive information center for subways and buses. There are also taxi stands, route maps, and bus information. Kyoto's tram transportation is very convenient, and the main tram lines in the city are JR.

Subway and some private railway lines. The bus network, mainly city buses, is very dense and may be a bit complicated for tourists, but many tourist attractions in Kyoto have bus stops. So try to combine the tram and bus lines to make your visit more convenient. "Tenrikyo", I thought this religion only existed in movies or novels.

On the way back to the hotel, we passed by Kyoto Imperial Garden. Kyoto Imperial Garden was originally a garden surrounding the Imperial Palace and the Sento Imperial Palace where the abdicated Emperor lived. Now it has become a spacious and green leisure place for citizens. The roads in Kyoto Imperial Garden are puzzling. They are all very hard-to-hear gravel roads, and the gravel is very large. It is said that this is also related to spiritual practice.

It is also a form of asceticism. The green Kyoto Imperial Garden, set against the dark clouds in the sky, further reveals the historical heritage of this thousand-year-old capital. Dinner is beef bowl fast food, which is one of the three major fast food chains in Japan and has many branches in Shihai City. But to be honest, the price in Japan is cheaper than in Shihai City. It has to be said that catering in China is very profitable.

Cold okra, I'm not used to eating it usually. But this way of cooking tastes good. Clean and tidy streets in Japan. The electric wires on the streets of Japan are also densely packed, which would undoubtedly be regarded as backwardness in China. Then the old city was renovated, and then the cables were dug. Not long after, they dug again. It is said that they were still laying cables, and they kept digging over and over again.

Laying cables all the time is a waste of money and labor, and then, you know... some people get richer. I stayed at Kyoto Brighton Hotel at night. It is located in the center of Kyoto. In terms of transportation, it is a 10-minute walk from the subway station. The walking path is very close to Kyoto Imperial Garden, and there is a Kyoto bus line nearby to Gion, Kiyomizu Temple and Kinkaku-ji Temple. At the same time, the hotel provides free shuttle buses to nearby subway stations.

The hotel is spacious, clean and tidy, with novel decoration. The breakfast is divided into Western and Japanese styles. The Japanese style is the famous Japanese Kaiseki cuisine. The price is higher than the previous hotels. It is worth recommending. The hotel room provides matcha. The little friend is also very satisfied with the results of his work, but considering that Yunluo's stocks were green in those days.

I really don't have the courage to try it. I stayed at the Kosenkaku Kyoto Brighton Hotel in Arima Onsen, Kobe. The Japanese breakfast is said to be a famous Kaiseki cuisine. Apart from the taste, the presentation is exquisite and beautiful, but the variety is not rich and it is relatively simple. After breakfast, I took the bus near the hotel to another famous scenic spot in Kyoto, Kinkakuji Temple. It was less than 8:30 when I arrived at Kinkakuji Temple.

Kinkakuji Temple opens at 10:00 am, but the temple gate is already crowded with people waiting. Transportation Tips for Kinkakuji Temple: There is no subway nearby, you can take the bus to get there. Tickets: 10 yen for adults, 10 yen for elementary and middle school students. Kinkakuji Temple, whose official name is actually Rokuonji Temple, is also called Kinkakuji Temple because the building is covered with gold foil.

It is an ancient Japanese temple located in Kyoto, which was first completed in 1868. In addition to being a well-known tourist attraction, it is also an important historical building designated as a national treasure by the Japanese government and a World Cultural Heritage by UNESCO in 1892. Kinkaku-ji Temple was built as a villa by Yoshimitsu, the third shogun of the Ashikaga family, in 1893.

After Yoshimitsu's death, it was converted into a Zen temple "Bodhisho". The garden centered on the Golden Pavilion is said to represent the Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss. The pond called Kagami-ko-ike and the Golden Pavilion complement each other, which seems to be the representative scenery of Kyoto. Especially on sunny days, you can enjoy the golden and magnificent Golden Pavilion and the blue sky and white clouds reflected in the Kagami-ko-ike, just like a picture postcard.

There is another unique feature of Kinkakuji Temple - visitors are not given a ticket to visit the temple but a paper charm with a blessing message written on it. In addition, there are Chinese and Korean fortune sticks for divination next to the Fudo Hall in the courtyard. Kinkakuji Temple is very popular, and just from these prayer candles, you can see that academic success and family safety are the most important things to do.

No disease, no disaster, etc. Acala, meaning the Immovable or Immovable, is called "Acala" in the religious world, and is also called the Immovable Messenger. "Immovable" means that the compassion is firm and unshakable, "Ming" means the light of wisdom, and "King" means the one who controls all phenomena. In fact, apart from the status of Kinkakuji as a world cultural heritage, Kinkakuji itself is surrounded by thousand-year-old trees.

If it is autumn, the forests are full of colors, it should be worth coming. The traffic map of the bus station is not difficult to see. The transportation in Kyoto is very convenient. The local cafe is very atmospheric. The bus connects Kinkakuji Temple and Gion (Kiyomizu Temple), and the fare is yen. From the map, the distance from Gion to Kiyomizu Temple is very close, and it is completely feasible to walk there.

It is important to note that Gion is a general term for a region. It does not refer to a specific garden. Gion refers to the area between Yasaka Shrine, Kamogawa and Higashioji-dori, which is a traditional prosperous street in Kyoto. There are so many things used for prayers in Japan, especially the ones with purses. Some unscrupulous sculptures on the roadside.

Transportation in Gion: Get off at Kawagencho Station on the Hankyu Kyoto Line, or get off at Gion Shijo Station on the Keihan Main Line. Ninenzaka and Sannenzaka outside Kiyomizu Temple are slopes with unique Kyoto style. These two slopes have been listed as "Important Traditional Buildings Protection Areas" in Japan. There are Japanese-style buildings full of ancient charm on both sides of the stone slope.

There are many souvenir shops with a strong Japanese style to visit, and you can occasionally see women wearing traditional Japanese clothes. There are many shops that rent traditional clothes, which cost about 100 yen per day, including clothes and decorations, such as the big flower on the woman's head. Hanami-koji is the essence of Gion. It starts from the teahouse in the east and ends at the Gion Kobu Kabu Dance Training Hall where dance skills are performed.

The street lamps are set up in the style of lanterns with the style of a flower street. When the lights are turned on at night, you can glimpse the graceful figures of maiko among the shadows. Sannenzaka is also called Anchanzaka because pregnant women often pray for smooth childbirth at Kiyomizu Temple. Not only that, there is another legend that "those who fall on Sannenzaka will die within three years."

Although it is just a legend, climbing Sannenzaka is indeed a bit strenuous. Kiyomizu Temple was built in 1644 AD and is the oldest temple in Kyoto. This temple, which covers an area of ​​10,000 square meters, was founded by Master Jien, who is said to be the first disciple of Tang Monk in Japan. Kiyomizu Temple is also a representative building of the Heian period, but it was burned down many times later.

The present one was rebuilt by Tokugawa Iemitsu in 1915 according to the original architectural style. It is one of the three major scenic spots in Kyoto, along with Kinkakuji Temple and Nijo Castle, and is also a famous spot for viewing maple leaves and cherry blossoms. The most famous feature of Kiyomizu Temple is its wooden steps, which are meters long and lead from the bottom of the mountain to the main hall. In 1915, Kiyomizu Temple was listed as a World Cultural Heritage. There is Otowa Waterfall in Kiyomizu Temple.

The spring is divided into three parts. They represent "academic success", "love success" and "longevity wish" respectively, and are considered to have magical powers. The teacher said that if you choose one of the three springs and drink the water, your wish will come true. But it should be noted that if you drink too much water from all the springs, it will be counterproductive.

From the observation deck (the stage of Kiyomizu Temple), you can see the beautiful scenery of Kyoto. In spring, you can see the pink cherry blossoms. In autumn, you can see the beautiful maple trees in Kyoto. The stage structure does not use nails. It is the same structure as Hasedera Temple and Ishiyama Temple, which are the Guanyin spirit halls of the municipal party committee, reflecting the reverence for Guanyin Bodhisattva. The temple enshrines the Thousand-armed Guanyin and other Guanyin statues.

The main hall of the temple, which is a national treasure, was built in 1917 and fully reproduces the style of the palace in the Heian period. In fact, 90% of the people wearing traditional costumes in Gion are Chinese tourists. Tickets for Kiyomizu Temple: Adults ¥, elementary and middle school students ¥, night visits for adults ¥, elementary and middle school students ¥. Opening hours: Generally from 6 am to 6 pm, if you visit at night, it will be extended to 9 pm.

It is said that Kiyomizu Temple is the headquarters of the Northern Hosso Sect of Buddhism. The Thousand-armed Guanyin statue enshrined in the temple is only open to worship once every year, and the next worship is on New Year. In the Japanese costume movies about Guanyin, fans are an indispensable decoration. A handful of yen is a good souvenir to give to others. Japan's matcha is very famous, and there are many snacks related to matcha.

I can't name it, but it's very refreshing and delicious. All three together, yen. It is said that it takes Japanese women about an hour to wear a kimono, including tidying up and putting on makeup, which is also drunk. Lunch at Wangjiang Dumplings, which is also one of the three major fast food chains in Japan. Japanese dumplings are not boiled, but all fried. Yasaka Shrine is a shrine located in Higashiyama District, Kyoto City, Kyoto Prefecture, Japan.

There are 22 shrines, and the old shrine was a government-run shrine (now a separate shrine of the main shrine office). It is the head shrine of about 3,000 Yasaka shrines in Japan, and its nickname is Gion-san. The shrine's regular sacrificial activities are called Gion Festival, which is known as one of the three major festivals in Japan along with Kanda Festival in Tokyo and Tenjin Festival in Osaka. It was originally called "Gion Shrine", "Gion Sha" and "Gion Kanshin-in".

"Gion Tenjin" was renamed "Yasaka Shrine" after the separation of gods and Buddhas in the Keio era. It is said that Yasaka Shrine has the most famous stone tablet amulet in Japan that can dispel the bad luck of husbands. Many people think that Japan is a Buddhist country, but in fact, Japan should be a pragmatic country without religious beliefs, and only seeks the blessings of gods.

The Japanese people's life is almost like this: go to the shrine when they are born, go to the church when they get married, and be buried in the Buddhist temple when they die. I came across a wedding held at Yasaka Shrine, but it didn't feel like an ordinary family, after all, Yasaka Shrine is so famous in Japan. If it is red in autumn, the scenery will be even more charming.

Japanese dolls are not as pretty as Chinese dolls. I took the Shinkansen from Kyoto to Kobe at 3:30 pm, passing through Osaka on the way. The ticket price was ¥ and it took minutes. I arrived in Kobe at 4:30 pm. The city of Kobe overlooked from Kobe JR Station. The only thing I remember about Kobe is Kobe beef. I didn't know there were hot springs, so I originally planned to stay in the city of Kobe.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

However, my friend who had been to Japan many times insisted on staying in Arima Onsen, which is far away from the city. We took three trains from Shin-Kobe Station (it took about minutes) to reach the Arima Onsen town. The moment we got off the train, Yunluo no longer complained. It is said that this place is related to the movie "Spirited Away". It has a very quiet rural style and provides the ultimate holiday enjoyment.

Arima Onsen is very famous in Japan. Of course, Arima Onsen is a general term for the region rather than a specific hot spring. In the town of Arima Onsen, there are many hot spring hotels. There are also many high-end hot spring hotels. However, even if you do not stay in a hot spring hotel or inn, you can still soak your feet in the hot spring for free in the ditches in the town.

After leaving the station, I checked the map on my phone and found that Arima Onsen Motoyu Kosenkaku was very close, so I decided to walk there. I pulled the suitcase and climbed a big slope with difficulty. The sign of Kosenkaku was very comforting, and then there was another big slope after turning the corner. Arima Onsen Motoyu Kosenkaku is located in Arima Onsen Town, Kobe, about kilometers away from Shin-Kobe Station.

It takes about 10 minutes to drive and you can take the tram to get there. It takes about 10 minutes to get there. There are many buses, but you need to transfer. Overall, it is very convenient. Kosenkaku Hot Spring is about 100 meters away from the town station. It takes about 10 minutes to walk. You need to climb two big slopes, which is quite strenuous. The hotel is located in a quiet area, and there are no choices for restaurants around, but you can reach the town.

The hot spring hotel can arrange free transportation to the town and the station at any time, which is very convenient. The hotel's service is thoughtful and considerate. What surprised Yunluo was that many hotel staff could speak Chinese. Later, I learned that they were Chinese students studying in Japan. I think the hotel also saw the huge market of Chinese tourists. There was no barrier to communication in language.

You don't need to go to the front desk to check in. The staff will take you to the rest area to rest. You can hand over your passport to the staff, and the staff will also deliver your luggage to the room. Bed making, breakfast, hot springs, etc. will be scheduled with the guests. The room is a Japanese-style room, which is actually the main feature of Arima Hot Springs.

Although the hotel looks modern, the Japanese style is very satisfying. The room is very spacious and the Japanese decoration is clean and tidy. After checking in, the hotel will make an appointment with the guests to make the bed. Basically, the bed is made when the guests are taking a hot spring bath, which does not affect the guests' stay. The bathroom is relatively small, but it is clean and tidy.

The only thing I was not satisfied with was the smell in the room. I was not sure about the smell. It smelled like straw and mold. Maybe I was not used to it. It was actually the smell of straw mat. At the same time, the room was equipped with an air purifier. Overall, I was very satisfied. I was worried that the hotel's dinner would be expensive, so I decided to eat in town. The hotel is located in a high place.

According to the hotel staff, you don't have to worry about getting lost in Arima Town, as it only takes minutes to walk from one end to the other. I saw many hot spring hotels along the way, which seemed to be much cheaper than hotels. Before 7pm, many restaurants in the town were closed. The quiet town really gave people a feeling of paradise.

We decided to have dinner at -. I like Japanese milk very much, and it seems cheaper than Chinese milk. A full table, less than 1 yen. After a short rest, we prepared to go to the hot springs. The hot springs are the hotel's specialty. They are different from the general hot springs in China. The hot springs are tea brown, which should be a very authentic hot spring. At the same time, the hotel also provides hot springs with clear water. The environment is elegant and satisfying.

From Kobe to Osaka, shopping in Osaka, staying at the Ritz-Carlton Osaka, Arima Onsen's Japanese breakfast, I have to say that every dish on the table is like a work of art, and every time, the camera is full before people eat, and every time I feel like I have no idea where to start. Overlooking the entire Arima Onsen town from the top of the hotel.

Arima Onsen is one of the three most famous hot springs in Japan, located in the foothills of Rokko Mountain on the outskirts of Kobe. As early as the 18th century, monks developed a hot spring resort. It is said that several generations of emperors also visited here. The hot spring resort was once destroyed during the Warring States Period. Fortunately, it was rebuilt at great expense by the favor of Toyotomi Hideyoshi, a daimyo in the Warring States Period.

Therefore, it is named "Taikokuyu" after Toyotomi Hideyoshi's official title. Arima Onsen has a variety of springs, the most famous of which are the iron-containing "Golden Hot Spring" and the carbonated hot spring "Silver Hot Spring". As one of the oldest hot spring resorts in Japan, Arima Onsen has many hot spring hotels to choose from, and has also developed a complete day-return hot spring experience program for day-trip tourists.
