Kurama-dera ( CLICK HERE )
10 This mountain temple in the hills north of the city (a mere 30 minutes away by direct
train) is easily the most pleasant half-day trip out of the city. New-Agey Kyotoites claim
that UFOs regularly land here. We're not sure about that, but we can certainly understand
why visitors from near and far love this place: the walk through the soaring cedar trees to
the main hall near the summit is pure magic. If you have the time, hike over the top to the
village of Kibune.
