Whole day; go early to beat crowds at Fushimi Inari
About an hour from Osaka, Kyoto rewards a full day: the endless vermilion torii tunnels of Fushimi Inari, the wooden terrace of Kiyomizudera and the geisha lanes of Gion. Go early to beat the crowds and watch your return train time carefully against the all-aboard.
