If you are visiting Kyoto, why not try a special trip that can only be experienced by bicycle? Feel the tranquility and atmosphere of the ancient capital, and enjoy the small paths that cars cannot access, and the freedom to go at your own pace. After starting from Higashiyama base, you will head for the Lake Biwa Canal along the cycling road along the Kamo River. If it is cherry blossom season, you will take photos at the Lake Biwa Canal. Take photos at the large torii gate of Heian Shrine, pass under the large torii gate, and head for the incline. At the incline, you will hear an explanation about the Lake Biwa Canal. During cherry blossom season, you can take photos with the cherry blossoms in the background. At Nanzenji Temple, you will enjoy the scenery that can only be seen here, where history and modern construction are fused. For lunch, you will have tofu dishes, a specialty of Nanzenji Temple. In the afternoon, you will cycle around the vast grounds of the Imperial Palace and visit historical buildings. This is a great plan that includes lunch and bicycle rental fees. You can enjoy cherry blossoms, fresh greenery, and autumn leaves in any season. You will also ride on roads that can only be ridden by bicycle. You will be guided through Kyoto roads that cannot be experienced by car or train. Because it's an E-Bike, even those who aren't confident in their physical strength can ride with peace of mind.
From the cycling road along the Kamo River to the vast grounds surrounding the Kyoto Imperial Palace, there are many places in Kyoto that can only be reached by bicycle. Each one of these places will show you unforgettable views.
See Kyoto's streets and historical buildings from angles you can't experience by car or on foot. For example, the Kamo River and the historic Sanjo Ohashi Bridge, with the Kyoto streets visible beyond. And the great torii gate of Heian Shrine stretching out before your eyes, with the spectacular scenery as you cycle underneath. These are special views that are deeply etched in your mind because you can ride slowly by bicycle.
The roads of Kyoto are history itself. Riding through areas where old roads and townhouses remain makes you feel as if you are on a journey through time. By cycling, you can experience Kyoto's history and culture with all your senses.
