Explore Kiyomizu-dera at the peak of its autumn foliage on November 26 — one of Kyoto’s most breathtaking seasonal moments. We take the quieter Chawanzaka approach, stroll through peaceful back routes, and enjoy the stunning views from the temple’s iconic wooden stage, built without a single nail and supported by 139 ancient pillars.
We’ll show you the glowing red maple valley, the three-story pagoda view from the Koyasu-no-to path, and the famous Otowa-no-taki Falls where visitors drink from the pure spring water. The tour ends with a walk down Kiyomizuzaka — a lively street lined with cafés, snacks, and traditional wooden shops leading straight to Gion.
