Hidden Gems of Kyoto: Day tour to Amanohashidate and Ine Funaya (Departure From Kyoto Station, Hachijo Exit, Tourist Bus Parking Lot)

Our journey begins with a comfortable drive to Amanohashidate, one of Japan's Three Views.
This magnificent 3.6-kilometer sandbar is adorned with 8,000 pine trees and surrounded by the serene Japan Sea and Amanohashidate Bay.
The name "Amanohashidate" means "bridge to heaven," and once you gaze upon its breathtaking scenery, you'll understand why. Don't miss the chance to take a cable car to Mount Monju for spectacular views from the observation deck (optional). From here, Amanohashidate appears like a dragon soaring into the sky, earning it the nickname "Flying Dragon View."
It's perfect for breathtaking photography!

Next, we head to Chion-ji Temple, renowned for its prayers for success. Take a look at the impressive temple gate and try the famous "Suehiro Sensu Omikuji" for a memorable experience. To enhance your journey, we'll connect the mainland where Amanohashidate and Chion-ji are located with a rotating bridge allowing large vessels to pass beneath. Want to relax? Visit Amanohashidate Onsen and soak in natural hot spring water while enjoying stunning views. Try the complimentary footbath as well. It's pure joy and delight!

Our final destination is the charming Ine Funaya, famous for its traditional boat houses. This quaint fishing village offers opportunities for strolling, renting bicycles, and feeding seagulls from boats against a picturesque coastal backdrop.
