How to Spend 3 Days in Kyoto 🇯🇵 | A Heartfelt Japan Travel Guide (2023)

If you only have 3 days in Kyoto, here’s a guide for you! Travel to Kyoto is a different kind of dreamy in spring and we could not help but be starry eyed through it all. This is our guide on how to do 72 hours in Kyoto city.

– ABOUT US –
Hi! We are Pooja & Shravan, an illustrator-engineer duo from Bangalore brought together by the love of travel and adventure.

We have traveled together since the winter of 2016. On one such trip, we started documenting these travels on a humble phone camera. We soon realised that we really enjoy capturing these experiences. We are entirely self taught (students of the internet) and have learnt from binging on brilliant creators over the years.

In our videos you might find glimpses of places that are not spoken about enough. We always vouch for spots that are somewhat the underdogs. Our vlogs are sometimes vlog-ish and sometimes a documentation of the place as we see it. We hope that watching these videos will bring a little dose of joy to your day.

We love reading your comments and hearing your thoughts.
They motivate us and help us steer our creative path.

With love,
Pooja & Shravan
