Hello everyone and welcome to our channel. If you are new here, our names are Rhea & Sam and together we quit our corporate jobs in London to travel the world.

In this video, we explore Kyoto, Japan’s cultural capital! We visit many popular spots and try some delicious Japanese snacks! Sadly we only had 24 hours in Kyoto; so if you’re the same, we think this is the perfect itinerary! Don’t forget to download SUICA card to your phone wallet for easy access to all public transport in Japan (you can top up before arriving in Japan and it’s ready to use right away)!

Hello everyone welcome back to another video today we are in Kyoto and we are going to be exploring some amazing sites and taking you along with us so we got here at 6:30 and as you can see it’s already quite busy so we’re going to hike up higher which apparently

Is like 3 hours yeah hour I’m not doing 3 hours though I just want to find a little quiet spot get pictures so we’re just approaching Ria’s arch nemesis St so I think we’re going to end our time here and head to the next spot cuz I did not want to walk

Upstairs this is my kind of place rest area you could get paid to rest I think there is nothing better in this life but than that so we had a really nice morning in the shrines and now we’re heading to our next spot which is arish Bamboo Grove so

This is another really famous spot here in Kyoto we just got off the bus in arama and this area looks so cute already it’s like really quain really green a lot more Country Side Vibes and the City of Kyoto and we’re really excited to explore the bamboo forest this has been

On our bucket list for a long time so the bamboo forest was a big surprise actually yeah it was nice it was underwhelming at first but then when you get to the actual Forest it’s a lot better yeah it’s nice but very busy I’d

Say if you want it to yourself and a bit more peaceful come maybe before 8: in the morning cuz now it’s half1 yeah it’s very busy but if you have more time in Kyoto it’s actually better because you can go to the gates one day and this

Another day but we only have one day so we going going to go get a coffee something we’ve noticed in Japan is that there are people walking around with this jacket with buil-in fans which is like revolutionary so cool why don’t I have one of them we need them and we

Need them in England blowing out hot air like a hair dryer by far the most cutest dog just walked by it had a little skirt on and it had its own buggy honestly the pets in Japan are so cute they’re like dressed up like little dolls it’s just

Amazing we’re heading to our next spot now which is monkey park hopefully we can feed some monkeys yes we just had a lovely day that restaurant was so cute and the views here are so beautiful it’s just doesn’t feel like we’re Japan no it doesn’t it reminds me of like how I can

Imagine Switzerland just so peaceful loads of Mountains clean oh yeah such a nice area we just stumbled across this little store that selling like these strawberries in like a little bun and re is are I need to get one they’re like 300 which is £150 so I wanted to try these ever since

I saw them on other people’s Channels cuz they just look really good so yeah I’m going to try one it’s a rice cake with Bean and strawberry probably won’t like it but I want to try it anyway oh it smells really good M how good is tried some rice cake kind

Of stuff in South Korea and it was not good no but this sec I’m oh so warm out today and this is so refreshing good right just a cucumber yeah but it’s got a nice flavor all right if you don’t want it I love it then it’s

Okay so we made it to the monkey Park unfortunately there’s a hell of a lot of stairs and the entrance is 600 Yen each so hopefully it’s worth it cuz this is the first thing we’ve actually paid for today minus the coffee so we reached the top the view is

Absolutely insane there’s loads of monkeys everywhere and they’re so cute you can even buy some like snacks to feed them if you want but we’re not going to do that I’m guessing that they have enough food in a day but yeah definitely recommend coming up here it was 100% worth the money

So how did you find it I actually really enjoyed that I like the fact that the monkeys are not in closed they’re free and um yeah just loved it so we’re at our last stop of the day we’re at King Kakui Temple I think I said that right oh my

Gosh guys it is so beautiful it is one of the most impressive temples we have ever seen check this out wow that has to be the best looking Temple I’ve ever seen in my life oh guys we’re exhausted we are we’ve had no naps today whatsoever no

Naps and we’ve been out well awake since 5:00 a.m. it’s now half 4 which actually I should mention this wait soone getting a picture sorry um yeah so the tempo actually closes at half 4 so make sure you come before then we were lucky actually if we were any later we

Wouldn’t have been able to get in and the entrance is 500 per person which is actually quite good yeah it’s absolutely stunning and now it’s kind of ruined our Temple experience any other time now cuz we’re never going to see another gold Temple but anyway we’re heading for

Dinner be a beer yeah I think we deserve it so we keep getting these things happen we’ll say something and then we’ll see it and it’s so weird yeah and we literally was on the bus saying something and was like oh we should call it like a stardust L and then we just

Seen it and I was saying at the same time we should play jazz and blah BL blah blah okay this totally looks like us are you ready are you ready so we just drew our staff H and we’re going to pin it but it’s so embarrassing cuz everyone else

Is so good who’s got this Talent go and our very nice very very nice very very nice and now new friends okay we’ve left the bar with our new friends yeah and now we’re going to go and get something to eat something very famous worldwide and that is McDonald McDonald’s Ares the golden

Nches I’m so excited for this double fillet of fish we got to look excited this never happens in the UK no look like squash it actually looks like the photo almost we’re missing lettuce we’re missing lettuce and a picko no I see it pickle it had to be on
