Shinkansen impressions

 

SEP 18

I got on the Shinkansen departing at 06:30 AM and arrived at Kyoto in 2.5 hours. After arrival I used sightseeing bus to visit such spots as Kyomizudera, Heian Shrine, Golden Pavilion etc, and then made check in at Rhiga Royal hotel.
Next day I left Kyoto at about 12:00 and was back to Tokyo at 14:40. The price of round trip Shinkansen ticket + hotel was 22600 JPY. If buy them separately, tickets will cost 27040 JPY, the hotel 8000 JPY (not including breakfast), 35040 JPY together. So buing the set you can save 12440 JPY.
It was great fun going to Kyoto with friends for 2 days.
