Amanohashidate Viewland and panoramic viewpoints

Amanohashidate is a narrow pine-covered sandbar stretching across the bay. You will have time to visit the beach, cross the rotating Kaisen Bridge and see Chion-ji Temple.

Depending on the booked option, you may travel up to Amanohashidate Viewland by chairlift, monorail or another available system to enjoy one of northern Kyoto’s best-known panoramic views.
