My jam packed 3-day Kyoto itinerary. Kyoto is my favourite city in Japan and it is renowned for its beautiful blend of traditional elements within a modern city. Kyoto has so much to offer from countless stunning temples, amazing food and breathtaking natural beauty! This is PART 1 of my 3 part Kyoto vlog series. Checked into an incredible hotel, visited the iconic Kiyomizudera temple, explored Gion and ate Shabu Shabu at the resturant where it originated!

This is my favorite city in Japan and what I love about Kyoto is a beautiful combination of Nature and traditional elements within a big city my name is Karen and I am a travel and food Creator follow along as I explore Kyoto in 3 days and I share all of the places I
Went ate and stayed we checked into our hotel in Kyoto and it had the most beautiful common area with a library and they even had movie Nights here for guests just checked into our hotel at the tun day in CUO and it’s such a beautiful hotel we’ve got a huge mirror which I
Love I always need a full body mirror the last one we said it didn’t have one and then we’ve got a sink straight away with a little mini fridge nothing to see in there a lot of storage space which is good um or places to put out stuff a little desk area
Which is exactly what we need and then I’ll bend with a TV nice and simple and then here we have the toilet with the shower pretty spacious exactly what we need for this two night staying cyod after settling in we’re just going to go out and have lunch now
We really wanted to eat yatu which is beef coated in breadcrumbs and deep fried and we found this highly rated spot in Kyoto this was a delicious feed but I found the meat a little bit too chewy I think our standards were pretty high and we were expecting some melt in your mouth
Wag you EX you get that’s so these bad boys right here 500 years old wandering around the streets and alleys around the temple you’ll find lots of souvenir shops street food snacks and desserts is what is see delicious very oy oh that’s so it’s a nice match how pretty is that
The the strawberry ping is so nice I think it’s a chocolate cing how’s your matcha Cola delicious can’t really tast the matcha but the cola is good then how is that a Macha Cola I don’t know feeling I think I need a new bag I
Want I need a new bag what do you think yes but we say V feel we didn’t know it at the time but this is actually the restaurant where Shou Shel had originated in Japan they serve highquality A5 or A4 Kyoto beef and the broth here is exceptionally flavorful it
Was such an incredible meal but very very pricey I highly recommend reservations but we got really lucky when they opened we waited about half an hour and we walked in without a booking how about this what an amazing start to our time in keoto up next we rent a kimono in
Arashiyama and soak in all the beauty it has to offer don’t forget to like And subscribe for more content I’ll see you in my next video
