An important Shinto shrine, famous for its thousands of vermilion torii gates. Up the sacred Mount Inari is a great and easy hike to enjoy majestic views of Kyoto (start at Keihan Fushimi-Inari Station), make sure to go early to avoid the crowds. 

A sleek modern café that is artfully decorated with charming antiques. They serve delicious and delicate Japanese sweets. Order the strawberry sandwich, you will thank us later. 

This lovely airy café is just a short stroll from Kakaido's original tea caddy workshop which was founded in 1875. Order their signature cheese cake which comes in a shape of a tea caddy. 

Kyoto's only Lebanese restaurant, which means it better be good. And good it is, we promise! They serve fantastic falafel for breakfast, lunch, and takeaway. We recommend sitting inside as the ambiance is perfect, and provides a sanctuary to escape from the hustle and bustle from the city.
