If you get tired of excursion to Kyoto's heritages, especially when you
want to get up late, the boating down the Hozugawa River (shooting the
Hozu rapids) is recommended. Because most of Kyoto Regular Sightseeing Bus leave in the morning. Of course the boat trip is also recommended in Spring or Autumn. So Déraciné and I enjoyed the boating down the Hozugawa River when we had time to spare. There were some nice boatmen in our boat. Every women! Why don't you try this exciting adventure when you are in Kyoto? Finally, as boat tour was coming to an end, seller boat got close to us. And then its staff sold some light meal and drinks. Unfortunately, our boat tour came to an end as soon as seller boat left. |
