    After our cycle from Heian Jingu we will step into a quiet, tucked-away shrine steeped in the history of Shintoism. Here, you’ll explore age-old rituals and spiritual traditions that lie at the core of Japanese culture, all within a peaceful setting far from the usual tourist paths. From here, we’ll cycle a short way to a historic Zen temple, home to stunning gardens and its own peaceful bamboo forest—a beautiful retreat in true Kyoto!
