You something 15 country visiting Wich cantry is bast of 1❤
If it is Autumn, definitely pay the ticket and go into Kiyomizudera temple. The view opposite, overlooking the main wooden stage, with a sea of red maple leaves. It was stunning especially during sunset. My friends got tired after all the walking. Choose to wait outside and not go in. Big regrets after I showed them the videos and photos I took.
Enjoyable and beautiful. Everyone I know who goes to Japan loves it.
For me Kyoto is the second best Japanese City behind Tokyo! Kyoto is still very very beautiful and I'd always recommend to visit this place when you travel to Japan
Yeah, it’s definitely worth visiting! Maybe shoulder season would be a better time to visit.
Thank you for bringing back those sweet memories,I was there before the pandemic.
Kyoto is just so beautifull but surprisingly I also love Nara just as much.
Can't forget Flora's looks when enjoying the matcha ice cream.
I loveeeee matcha! Can't get enough of good matcha in this region of Japan :)
Nice selection of things to do in Kyoto.
Amazing trip!
I really like the look on your face when you eat.
It makes me happy too.
Thank you for introducing Japan so carefully.
Thank you for watching 🙏
Beautiful kyoto...thanks for sharing your vlog..i really enjoy to watched and listened..both of you about the places and foods..so love it!😊🩷
Hopefully more Japan food. Really enjoy, always have a smile when watching. I think it because both of you keep smiling too. Thanks
Thanks for taking us to kyoto

Very informative, love this video …. Thanks to both of you 👍😊
So glad to finally have experienced this in person 😍
Thank you for your video
Thanks!
I’ve been loving this series guys! The boat ride looked looked like so much fun and the drink you had at the shrine looked so yummy, so sad I missed that when I visited. Looking forward to the next one😍
That little amazake place was such a gem! Save it on your list for your next visit :)
Enjoying the videos 😁
This is a so beautiful video!
I also learned a lot about Japan, which I thought was amazing.
I'm Japanese, but I learned a lot from you.
I also want to go to Kyoto.
And thank you for loving Japan.😂🎉
Thank you so much 🙏 Hope you'll enjoy some of these activities on your next visit to Kyoto!
Thank you for showing us Japan!! I have never been there (but many times to south east asia) so this is something really new for me and the way you present it is lovely as always
It's also our first time really exploring Japan so we're glad to be able to share our experience!
Enjoyed watching you video. I'll be there next week and I gonna need to try the Amazake! Thanks for the idea😊
The amazake was so memorbale! Definitely a highlight of that area for us :) Glad you'll be going to try it 😃
Thank you for your beautiful video.I am planning a trip in October 2024. I plan to stay in kyoto. I will watch your video again.
I love this!!! I appreciate your content. I am currently planning for next year November 2024 family trip to Osaka, Kyoto and Nara. We just went to Tokyo Disney and Disney Sea this past July. We can’t get enough of Japan. But your list is awesome. I definitely want to do the 1-3 on your list. Plus that app Magic is something I need to download. I am still researching where to go so I can plan the trip accordingly. I thank you both so much! You just got another subscriber!
Glad we can help! We totally understand how you feel about not getting enough of Japan 😆 We already have a list of places for our next trip haha
Wonderful vlog
Ahhh.... Amasake, remember having in winter atbtge same shop. Really good.
Amazing episode ! It's very interesting and thank you very much for sharing those top 8 things to do in Kyoto. Overall, Kyoto is very beautiful !! You both are doing a fantastic job. Keep it up and safe travels always, Flora & Note.
Thank you 🙏😃 We have a few more lovely places to show you before we end this Japan series!
@@FloraandNote Ok, noted with thanks 🫰
Kyoto is beautiful. The main attacrations can be crowded but with more time there is so much more to see without the crowds. I feel that you two will be back in Japam soon enough to explore some more🥰
There's so much to see and so little time 😂 We definitely need a second trip here in the future.
Lovely and simple video.
So many people but looks like you's both had an amazing time there regardless :)
Our favourite was the little amazake place near Fushimi Inari Shrine 😍
Thanks for sharing. I will also try magic travel
It's super helpful, especially for hotel booking :)
I've been binge-watching your videos all day, keep up the good work.
Thank you so much!
Nice adventure place guys.❤❤Have a nice travelling.Japan never disappoint.👌👌👌👏👏👏🤘✌️✌️💪🤟🤟🤟🤟⛱️⛱️🗾🗾🗾🌉🌉🌃🏡⛩️⛩️⛩️🗻🗻🗻
We were staying in Gion for 6 days. Our hotel was a blocks always from Yasaka Jinja. It was such a great trip. But we didn't take a boat ride at Arashiyama.
That's a great location! We stayed a bit further out but it was still convenient to get around by bus and metro.
Thank you very much for revisiting all the places we visited 10 years ago. Most memorable moments were our stay in Takayama and a day trip to Shirakawago, and the Thousand Red Torii Gates. Hoping Miyajima island is on your checklist.
Takayama and Shirakawago is still top of our list so far! 😍
@@FloraandNote Glad to hear. Totally agreed.
Fabulous episode. The boat ride looked like so much fun. I love watching you both when you taste different foods. When do you go back to Thailand?
We do have a Thailand series coming - we'll share more soon!
The food boat on your river ride is a floating version of a food truck - love it! I wasn't epecting to see a 'Wendy's' in the Nishiki Market.
wow very interesting content friend
Thank you 😊
welcome@@FloraandNote
Flora and Note this is a beautiful boat ride. The nature of Japan looks so beautiful and fun. I used to live in Okinawa. I would love to see you both do a series in Okinawa one day. Flora and Note thank you so much for visiting Japan. Hopefully you both can visit Hiroshima.
We're going to Kyushu but we might not have time to make it to Okinawa this time. It looks beautiful there though. How long did you live there?
@@FloraandNote I lived in Okinawa 2 years
Interesting, I 'd been in Kyoto before but I didn't have yours experience 😅👍 like it
Probably a lot less people when you went there years ago 😅
I gave the interview to come there before 2 years ago. I couldn't select but i was already selected in Osaka City. There were only graduated could give the interview.
Beautiful Kyoto! Nice guide, looks like all the tourists are in Kyoto 😂😂😂 I can see why
Cherry blossom season must be insane there 😅
@@FloraandNote I can’t imagine the beauty of cherry blossom time…
Haulin oars down that river wow how cool and beautiful AND a 7/11!!!😂I’m more impressed with resiliency of convenience by locals everywhere. $7000.00 for a post-getchu one!!! 😂’have a WonderFlo day inscribed!😅’. I would love to try the rice dishes but I’ve never cared for bread or rice pudding. I figure the people that do rice for everything should be better than American-notwithstanding family heirloom recipes! Very beautiful places thank you🙏🏻❤️
Thanks for this awesome guide ! Cautionary tale to all travellers to avoid Kawa Bar and Kawa Cafe. Be sure to read the google reviews.
i find kyoto better than tokyo. as always waiting for the next one
Guys you should have visit inside that temple of kiyomizu dear temple. The actual beauty is actually from inside. I went it regardless of crowd. It’s definitely worth it!
I guess we need to visit Kyoto again!
you know what, i am japanese and never been to kyoto yet lol
so thank u for showing me kyoto
Haha you’re very welcome. I’m sure you’ll be able to find even more hidden gems than us 😆
I plan on moving/retiring to Kyoto...I hope its not a hard process 😌
Amazing vlog! Thank you so much for sharing. My husband and I are heading there next week. Did the establishments accept credit card or cash, especially the temples? Thanks love you guys.
Majority of places prefer cash...only hotels, some convenience stores and some restaurants 👍take credit. We withdrew cash from 711 ATMS..the fee is minimal. Hope you'll have a great time in Japan!
Thank you!! Can’t wait to see your next Japan adventure.
Please come to India guys ..........if you come you can stay with my family ...... ❤
Hi, I am planning to take a day trip to Kyoto. How long will it take for each stop that you explore?
I am number one viewer
🥇 for you!! ❤️❤️❤️
How did you get to the startingpoint of the boatride. I would love to take one, when I am there.
Nice video! Where to stay in kyoto to be able to cover all the places you recommend?
Staying around Kyoto station would be most convenient 😊
Has the boat thing reopen? I heard it was closed before due to an accident
Yes it’s open again and now you’re required to wear life jackets
you can cover everything in 2 days!!?
That’s what we did 😆 There are more places to visit if you have a few more days there… mostly more temples and shrines and maybe a day trip to Nara.
In india ..we call this Kanzji (a Malayalam word)...
What month of the year was this video filmed?
It was last month (October 2023) 😃
I was curious about this also since it looked like the weather was still quite warm but not hot.
How was the weather in October?
What time of year did you go?
We were there in October 😊
@@FloraandNote thank you!
What month did you visit Kyoto?
We were there in October 😊

Lmao it’s never too early for Asians. They wake up before dawn! Lol
Now that is some actually useful commercial, I'll check Magic, thanks! 😁
Great to hear that! It’s super useful for finding a great hotel ☺️
thanks for taking us along! enjoying your content but please at least try to pronounce the cities correctly!! its not Ki-Yoto, it's Kyoto.
Noted! 😊
Its kyoto, not kioro lol
华裔？
I really hate that you use sponsors for your videos.
That's too bad you feel that way. We also need to make a living to be able to continue traveling and making free content for you and others on CZcams.
Thank you for introducing Amazake sweet drink. There are several recipes for Amazake* and Amazake you drunk is from rice.

It's soo delicious, especially warm with ginger 😍
let's exchange
