Best time to visit Kyoto

What to do in Kyoto
Kyoto is Japan's cultural heart. Visit Fushimi Inari with its thousands of red torii gates, stroll through Arashiyama temples, explore the bamboo forest, and see the Imperial Palace. Geishas still work in Gion, the most authentic traditional district. Eat at local markets and stay in a ryokan if your budget allows. Plan at least three or four days to explore properly.
