The Kyoto autumn foliage routes I'd visit countless times
“Route 1: Eikando Temple – Nanzen-ji Temple – Tofuku-ji Temple 📍 Eikando Temple Transport: Take the bus to the "Nanzen-ji Eikando-michi" stop and walk for 5 minutes Tips: I recommend arriving at opening time at 8:00 AM, as it gets very crowded later You'll need at least 2 hours to explore and take photos properly.”
