A little travel guide with Tabi
Start slowly, with one place.
Find a view and a small meal.
精華町
Seika in southern Kyoto combines research-city development with older village landscapes. Check buses from JR Hosono and Kintetsu Shin-Hosono stations, distinguishing stops for the garden and plaza. Plan Raikoji separately.
This guide covers places within Seika, rather than places immediately beside your app check-in.
01 · EXPLORE
Two different places: start with whichever interests you.
