Reply To: Eikando temples in Kyoto wheelchair accessible?
Thank you both very much for your advise! This greatly helps.
I fully believe Kyoto Tours will be a fantastic guide. I already approached them a few weeks ago and they were fully booked for the days that I am in Kyoto. Good for them, unfortunate for me.
@Accesible Japan: your website it fantastic. Today I visited the Fushimi Inari Shrine with three colleagues. Your website gave a great impression of what we could expect there and guided us greatly via the alternative route. Thank you so much!!!!
If I can make a contribution to your website for a place that is not yet on there, please let me know. For example: the Higashi Hongan-ji temple was great. I also plan to visit the Kyoto botanical garden and will follow the miniature food workshop with tour.
Best regards,
Klazina.
