Kyoto Sightseeing Tour Special Project "Kyoto by the River" Guided Tour
A fragrant riverside road - A cycling journey from Kizu to Nagarebashi, exploring history and nature
Held on Sunday, December 14th
Enjoy a leisurely ride along the cycle road that runs alongside the Kizu River, experiencing the history and scenery woven by the river. Along the way, you'll tour the landscape of the rice paddies and tea fields that line the riverside, Izumi Ohashi Bridge, which flourished as a river crossing point, and an ancient temple built in the Nara period, all while discovering the connection between the river and faith. Along with a guided tour, you'll also get to listen to and learn about the history and structure of Nagarebashi Bridge, a wooden bridge designed to sway in the wind in case of flooding, conveying the image of this region that has lived side by side with water. Through the power of bicycles, we'll take you on a refreshing short trip, experiencing the flow of the Kizu River and the local lifestyle and culture.
