  • Though they are only a mere half hour or so from Kyoto, the villages of Kurama and Kibune, located in valleys on either side of a mountain, seem like a world away. Nestled in the nurturing embrace of the northern mountain forests, these two villages are home to a famous shrine and temple, as well as rich natural beauty, traditional dining, and lovely hiking trails. Kyoto locals flock to these villages in summer to escape the summer heat, and in winter to take in the beauty of the snowy landscape.

      Hi Thanh! Thank you for watching my video! With regards to your query, I think there are a couple of restaurants near Kifune Shrine specializing in nagashi somen noodles. Hirobun is the famous one, just a 5-min walk from Kifune shrine. I think it is open only during lunchtime though, from 11am to 3pm.

    Hello, I want to ask, can I use Suica to enter Demachiyanagi Station (Eizan Railway)? and what is the difference with using eizan tram? i see eizan tram is full of transparent glass

      Hi! Thank you for watching my video! With regards to your queries, yes, you can use IC cards like Suica to enter Demachiyanagi station. You just need to tap/touch the IC card reader by the entrance with your IC card. As for the Eizan Electric Railway, it is a private company and a subsidiary of Keihan Electric Railway that runs a small railway network in north-eastern Kyoto. They have special sightseeing trains with large windows so that passengers can enjoy amazing maple leaves on both sides of the train track during autumn, among others.

    Is it not considered rude to get up from my seat and stand near the driver? I loved your shots of the moving train and would like to see the wide-angle view from the front... but I wonder if I will be an annoying tourist if I do that

      Hi again! With regards to your query, no, it is not considered rude to stand near the driver to take some videos. In fact, during the peak season, you will notice a few more locals and tourists alike doing the same thing. If you want a good view during the peak season, I suggest that you sit near the driver already when you board so that you can easily stand up and position yourself when you see the autumn colors. Hope this information helps! Enjoy! :)

    I see the first train was pretty crowded when it arrived. Is there a chance to reserve seats on the Keihan train?

    • @wheretonext1190
      @wheretonext1190  20 дней назад

      Hi! Thank you for watching my video! With regards to your query, the first train you probably saw was arriving at Kyoto station. This explains why it looked crowded. But if you would notice, the train we rode going to Demachiyanagi station was not crowded at all. In any case, this train is a commuter train so unfortunately, seats cannot be reserved. A train arrives every few minutes though so if by any chance, the train is full or crowded, you can always wait for the next train.
