Kyoto Hidden Gems

La antigua capital imperial durante más de mil años. Los miles de torii bermellón de Fushimi Inari, el Pabellón Dorado, el bosque de bambú de Arashiyama y los barrios de geishas conforman el Japón más icónico. El truco para evitar multitudes: madrugadas, atardeceres y escapadas a Uji o Miyama.

10 spots

Capital de Japón durante más de mil años: 17 sitios UNESCO, una economía artesanal viva y una agreste costa del mar de Japón a la que la mayoría de los visitantes nunca llega.

Clima y mejor temporada
