The Kiyomizu-dera and Nanzen-ji temples are must-visit spots during the red leaf season

In Kyoto, the red leaf season is divided into particularly bustling places and generally bustling places. Kiyomizu-dera is a particularly bustling place, so it's a must-visit. Even if there are many people, you can still have your own way of enjoying it. Remember every little detail. The donut coffee breakfast shop on the uphill road, the view of Kyoto city from the observation deck, taking photos of the three-story pagoda under the sunlight from various angles, buying all kinds of amulets, queuing for the Three Holy Waters, sitting in the tea room at the exit to have tea and small dumplings, visiting the bustling Sannenzaka and Ninenzaka, checking in at the popular tea shop Yun no Cha, and tasting the eel rice that I love from Kamado. Nanzen-ji is also worth visiting. It seems that I ran into a celebrity at the Hojo Pavilion, which is a common occurrence in Kyoto at this time.
