龍安寺
The rock garden of fifteen stones. A bus links it with Kinkaku-ji, but if you look slowly at both, do not also add Ninna-ji.

仁和寺
Omuro cherries and a five-storey pagoda. Late-cherry season is crowded. Same northwest as Kinkaku-ji; blossom season needs its own time.

北野天満宮
Sugawara no Michizane’s shrine; the market falls on the 25th. On ordinary days walk on to Hirano — do not jump to Ginkaku-ji.

平野神社
Many cherry varieties; the bloom runs longer than downtown. A walk from Kitano Tenmangu. Not required on the way to Kinkaku-ji.

大徳寺
A cluster of subtemples. Some need a separate ticket and some open only on set days. Pick one — do not assume the whole complex is open.

妙心寺
One of Kyoto’s largest Zen complexes, full of subtemples. Same west line as Ninna-ji. If time is short, the main compound only.

One ramen bowl on the Kinkaku axis. After the pavilion or Kitano — do not sprint to Arashiyama.
