Lake Biwa Shirahige Shrine and Ukimido Day Tour from Osaka Kyoto

Description

Discover the serene beauty and cultural charm of Japan’s Shiga and Kyoto prefectures on this one-day escape.

Begin your journey at Lake Biwa, Japan’s largest and oldest freshwater lake, where shimmering waters meet mountain horizons. Take in the crisp air and sweeping views, perfect for quiet reflection or breathtaking photos.

Next, visit Shirahige Shrine, famous for its striking crimson torii gate rising from the lake itself. This centuries-old Shinto shrine offers a truly iconic scene, especially when the gate’s reflection dances on the water’s surface.
