I want to visit a shrine for the first time in the New Year! Can you recommend some temples and shrines in Kansai and hotels near them?

• Located in the center of Kyoto with good transport access

• It is a 2-minute walk from JR Kyoto Station, so it has great access to public transportation. You can also visit Tawawa Shrine, which is located on the observation deck, and see the Kyoto skyline. It is also close to cafes, shopping malls, bus stops, etc., making it convenient for sightseeing and souvenir shopping.

• A hotel located in Kyoto Tower, convenient for New Year's visits to shrines

• It's located in downtown Kyoto, and is close to Heian Shrine and Yasaka Shrine for your first visit of the year. It might be nice to go up the candle-shaped Kyoto Tower to see the first sunrise of the year. It's fine if you have small children with you, as long as they don't get fussy. If you want to avoid the crowds, how about Arashiyama?
