Kyoto Japan 🍃 A Temple Where the Garden Reflects on a Table | Rurikoin & Eizan Railway

Hi, I'm Waka! This time I rode the little Eizan Railway out of Kyoto Japan to Yase, and visited Rurikoin — a temple where the garden reflects on a polished table. In October the maples are still green, and far fewer people come. ⚠️ Please turn on captions (CC) in the video settings to watch with subtitles. 🎞 Chapters 0:00 Intro 0:38 Demachiyanagi Station 1:16 Riding the Eizan Railway 3:00 Yase-Hieizanguchi Station 3:24 Walking to Rurikoin 4:39 Entering Rurikoin 5:49 The Reflection on the Table 7:04 The Yase Kamaburo 7:21 The Ruri Garden 7:52 Matcha 9:25 Carp in the Water 10:13 On to Ohara 📍 Places visited (in order) Demachiyanagi Station https://www.google.com/maps/search/%E...

Almost every photo you see shows a table glowing red, but the green season is just as quiet — and far less crowded. 🚃 The Maple Tunnel The Eizan Railway splits in two at Takaragaike. I took the Main Line to Yase-Hieizanguchi, but the other branch, the Kurama Line, runs north toward Kifune and Kurama. Between Ichihara and Ninose a 250-metre stretch is called the Maple Tunnel, and in autumn the train turns off its lights and slows down to pass through the red leaves. If you enjoyed this quiet morning in Yase, I'd love it if you subscribed for more silent vlogs from Japan 🇯🇵 #Kyoto #KyotoJapan #Rurikoin #JapanTravel #SilentVlog #JapaneseGarden
