What you’ll do

When Kyoto comes to mind, people usually think of Gion, the Golden Temple, and beautiful Japanese gardens. However, Kyoto has much more to offer.

Just two hours away from the city, you'll discover Kyoto by the Sea. This coastal region provides a refreshing escape from the main tourist routes, boasting breathtaking natural beauty, charming fishing villages, and the freshest and most delicious seafood in all of Kyoto.

All of these locations are easily accessible by public transport. Travel time from Kyoto Station is approximately 2 hours and 10 minutes by train or 1 hour and 40 minutes by car.

*Travel times are approximate and may vary depending on your departure time and traffic conditions.
