Taking a sightseeing tour of Kyoto will be one of the most amazing times of your life. You’ll see things very few other people in the United States have seen, try foods you’ve probably only heard of and more. The only thing that can make this trip even more fun is bringing along your children.

Imagine your children as they enjoy the cherry blossoms in the spring or the fall leaves in autumn on their tour of Kyoto and watch their faces light up in excitement as they rearrange the rocks of a Zen garden. Watch them run up the steps of a temple and imagine them pointing out koi fish that are swimming in a nearby pond. Or perhaps you can take them to one of the activities listed below that make up some our favorite activities to enjoy when taking a tour of Kyoto:

Kiyomizu-dera: One of the most beautiful temples in all of Japan, Kiyomizu-dera is a great place to visit with your children. With fine, exquisite dining consisting of tea, mocha and more, you’ll find this serene temple is a relaxing way to soak up some of Kyoto’s history and culture.

Nijo Castle: A grand castle in Kyoto, the surface area of this palace consists of 275,000 square meters of which only 8,000 is made up of structures. Completed in 1626, this castle was built on the order of Tokugawa Shogunate who ordered all the feudal lords in Western Japan to contribute to the construction of this beautiful castle. Enjoy the grounds of this magnificent landmark, which are particularly popular with children thanks to the floors that chirp like birds when walked upon to alert residents of intruders.

Nishiki Market: Enjoy this market with your children with over 100 covered food stalls ranging from ice cream parfaits to kumquat juice parlors to pickles to fried fish on a stick. Enjoy this delightful array of foods with your children as you take a break from your sightseeing tour of Kyoto.

Umekoji Steam Locomotive Museum: With locomotives that your youngsters can climb all over to go with roundhouses, dioramas and more, this stop is a great place to visit with your children as you make your way through Kyoto.
