There are hundreds of temples and shrines to see in Kyoto, so be selective! You probably don't want to pencil in more than 2 or 3 a day!
Best ones?
- Kinkaku-Ji (Golden Temple). While there, also visit the nearby Ninna-Ji.
- To the south (one stop on the train to Nara) - Fushimi Inari is a must-see. It is particularly beautiful at dusk when you can walk up the steep hill through the tunnels of red Torii Gates.
- Gingaku-Ji (Silver Temple) is worth visiting. If you have time, walk the 'Philosophers Walk' which takes you past other shrines on the way. NOTE - the temple closes in the evening so don't be late!
