Many cherry varieties; the bloom runs longer than downtown. A walk from Kitano Tenmangu. Not required on the way to Kinkaku-ji.
Best time
Morning after the gates open. New Year and festivals are separate.
How to go
City bus or subway “北野白梅町”. Tap ICOCA or PiTaPa. A city-bus day pass is bus only — not subway or JR.
Tips
- · Many cherry varieties; the bloom runs longer than downtown. A walk from Kitano Tenmangu. Not required on the way to Kinkaku-ji.
- · One axis a day. Do not stack Higashiyama, Arashiyama, Fushimi, Kinkaku and Ginkaku.
