Kyoto in autumn | 3-day itinerary | teahouse, cafes, temples & red leaves spots | Japan VLOG

What this video shows

From the guide “Japan Autumn Leaves 2026: Where and When to Go”: Japan’s autumn colours, known as koyo, arrive first in northern and high-altitude areas, then spread towards lower elevations and much of western Japan.

From the guide “Where to Stay in Kyoto: Areas, Transport & Tax”: For a first visit, compare Shijo Kawaramachi if central walks toward Gion are your priority, Kyoto Station if you expect several JR journeys, and Gion–Higashiyama if historic sights shape your plans.
