British aristocrats who visited Venice competed to purchase the vedutas (landscape paintings) of the 18th century painter Canaletto (1697-1768) as mementos of their trip. The ideal image of Venice, with its sparkling waters, orderly architecture, and festive atmosphere, was established through Canaletto's vedutas, which combine grandeur and precision. This exhibition is the first in Japan to introduce the entire work of Canaletto, the master of vedutas. Through Canaletto's magnificent Venetian landscapes, we will trace the process by which the veduta genre was established, and also introduce the works of 19th century painters who captured Venice with a different perspective than Canaletto.

Fushimi Inari Taisha

One of the oldest shrines in Kyoto, the main deity is Inari, who is in charge of harvest, business prosperity, and family safety. Behind the shrine, there are thousands of vermilion torii gates stretching to the top of the mountain, which is a representative landscape of Kyoto.
When I came at around 1pm, there were a lot of tourists. There were many shops at the door where you could change into kimonos. There were a lot of young men and women wearing kimonos. There were not many cherry blossoms in mid-April. Thousand Torii Gates⛩️In fact, it is easier to take pictures when you walk inside with fewer people.
If you just want to take a quick walk, there is still a mountain to climb behind, and you still have some time. You can overlook the panoramic view of Kyoto from the mountain.

Arashiyama

Mountain climbing

Located in the northwest of Kyoto City, on the eastern edge of the Tanba Plateau, it is known as the &quot;No. 1 Scenic Spot in Kyoto&quot;.
There are: Sagano Bamboo Forest, Togetsukyo Bridge, Arashiyama Park (consisting of Kameyama, Nakanoshima, and Rinchuan Temple, with red pines, cherry trees, maple trees, etc., as well as facilities such as squares, rest areas, and observatories.), Tenryuji Temple, Nonomiya Shrine and other shrines. There is also Iwatayama Monkey Park.

It was a resort for aristocrats in the Heian period, became a center for temples and shrines in the Edo period, and gradually became a tourist destination after the Meiji Restoration.

◦ You can take the Sagano sightseeing train: it runs along the Hozugawa Valley, a total of 7.3 kilometers, about 25 minutes one way, and you can enjoy the beauty of the four seasons.

◦ Hozugawa rafting cruise: you can experience it in Kameoka, crossing the Aoyama Gorge to reach the Togetsukyo Bridge, the ticket price is 4,100 yen for adults.

I actually felt that it was okay after a tour, especially compared with the famous rivers and mountains in my country, the scenery is more delicate, and there is nothing special about it.

Amazing Experience in Kyoto&rsquo;s Gion During AutumnVisiting Kyoto in autumn was truly a breathtaking experience, and Gion was the highlight of my trip. The combination of historic streets, traditional wooden machiya houses, and the vibrant autumn foliage created a magical atmosphere. Walking through Hanamikoji Street felt like stepping back in time, with the occasional sighting of elegantly dressed maiko adding to the charm.
