What You’ll Discover
We shaped this three-day journey for travellers ready to slow right down and see the rural side of the Kyoto region. We take you to the thatched-roof village of Miyama with a hands-on cooking class, then to Amanohashidate, one of Japan's three great scenic views, and finally to Ine, a fishing village of funaya boathouses that sit right on the water. With transport and two nights arranged, this is slow travel by design, well off the usual route.
Cook a countryside meal from scratch in Miyama, then wander Kayabuki-no-Sato, a living village of thatched-roof farmhouses where a rural way of life still carries on.
Take in Amanohashidate, counted among Japan's three great views — a 3.6-kilometer pine-covered sandbar stretching across the bay.
Cruise the bay at Ine, gliding past rows of funaya — wooden boathouses built right at the water's edge, found almost nowhere else in Japan.

Day 2
Ride up to Amanohashidate Viewland this morning and look out over the famous pine-covered sandbar — then bend down and view it upside-down between your legs, in the local tradition, so it seems to float like a bridge into the sky. Rent a bicycle to cross the sandbar, visit Motoise Kono Shrine and Kasamatsu Park for another vantage point, then transfer to the seaside fishing village of Ine, famous for its rows of traditional funaya boathouses built over the water, for a peaceful night by the bay.
