Kyoto

They say that if you really want to experience a city, you have to go where the locals go. Now, I can’t say that Japan is home, but it sure does feel like it. What I truly love most about Japan and the design of these spaces is that nothing is ever as it seems. The most beautifully curated space, filled with intentional vintage furniture, turns out to be a candy shop. These hidden gems are what continue to draw me to this country. Here is Part 2 of the special places you should visit for a beautiful experience in Japan. Feel free to save for your future trips. #japan #japantravel #aesthetic #gratitude

Stumbled across this rare book store in Kyoto- there seems to be plenty of shops like this around the area, but this one stuck out to us. Their collection of wood block prints were incredible. So much range and at really great prices. 2000 yen for the piece I purchased ~ I show it in the video ☺️ going to get it framed when I’m back in Aus. If anyone knows of any other great print and poster spots in Kyoto, please please share! I’m still on the lookout for something more modern and A1 sized. 🧐 (an archived exhibition poster maybe?) 🫰🏼Location: Kikuo Shoten, Kyoto

Welcome to the 6th episode of the Slow Travel With Me series! Here are the places featured in this video: 1. Enkōji Temple The temple is located on a hillside, a quiet place away from the city’s hustle and bustle. In autumn, the temple’s garden is covered with red and orange maple leaves. I like to visit in the morning, walking through the empty garden to appreciate the beauty of nature. 2. APFR APFR is a home scents specialty store with only two physical locations in Japan. The store’s displays are stylish and elegant, with products ranging from incense, scented candles, room sprays, and reed diffusers to hand soap. Several fragrances feature special tea scents. I bought a white tea reed diffuser, which has a delicate and fresh fragrance. 3.momoharu This is where I found the best tamago sando (egg sandwich) in all of Kyoto! The perfect combination of fluffy eggs and bread, along with the tea that comes with the set, is a true delight! Reading in this quiet little shop while enjoying a delicious sandwich helped me relax and unwind. I hope you can also experience a slow and relaxing time in Kyoto! Save this video for your next visit. #fyp #reels #reelstrending #reelsviral #travel #explore #japantrip #japantravel #kyototrip #travelkyoto #kyotocafe #enkoji #apfr #momoharu #圓光寺 #京都喫茶店 #京都旅行

Enter the world of T.T., an art space dedicated to reinterpreting the beauty of Japan @taigatakahashi #spotsyoushouldknow T.T 570-120 Gionmachi Minamigawa, Higashiyama Ward, Kyoto

Tucked away in a quiet corner of Kyoto, Komyoin Temple is a hidden sanctuary known for its breathtaking Hashin-no-Niwa (波心の庭), or “The Garden of the Moving Heart.” Designed by renowned landscape architect Shigemori Mirei, this karesansui (dry rock) garden embodies the simplicity and depth of Zen aesthetics. The carefully arranged rocks and raked white gravel create an ever-changing scene, inviting visitors to reflect and find inner peace. I arrived early in the late afternoon when the temple was almost empty. The contrast of lush moss, meticulously placed stones, and the rhythmic patterns of gravel felt almost meditative. Time seemed to slow down, and for a moment, there was only the sound of rustling leaves and the occasional birdcall. Komyoin is one of those places that remains beautifully underrated, offering a rare chance to experience Kyoto’s Zen essence without the crowds. If you’re looking for a quiet moment of reflection away from the city’s busy temples, this is the perfect place to be. Save this post for your next Kyoto trip! #fyp #reels #reelstrending #reelsviral #travel #explore #japantrip #japantravel #kyototrip #travelkyoto #kyototemple #komiyoin #光明院 #波心の庭 #京都旅行 #京都寺廟 #京都櫻花
