Hiking in Japan: Mount Daimonji Kyoto
Hiking in Japan. This is a great hike up Daimonji mountain suitable for beginners and I have even seen kids doing it. You are in for a treat because the view from the clearing is phenomenal. Kyoto is surrounded by mountains and once a year giant symbols on the side of 5 mountains are set alight as a farewell to visiting spirits.

Hiking Mt Hiei In Kyoto
Hiking Mt. Hiei in Kyoto // Spent a cloudy morning hiking up Mt. Hiei in northeastern Kyoto.
DIRECTIONS TO MT HIEI:
Take the Karasuma subway line from Kyoto station to Kitayama Station. Go out exit 1. Turn left out of the exit, cross the street, then turn right and cross the street, and wait at the bus stop for bus #8. If you want to take the cable car and ropeway all the way to the top of Mt Hiei, get off the bus at Shugakuin station (修学院) and take the light rail to the end of the line where you can transfer to the cable car. If you want to hike all the way, get off the bus at Ichijoji Kinomoto Cho (一乗寺木ノ本町) and walk to the Nihon Baptist Hospital. Photo directions are in the article below.

Climbing Mount Daimonji in Kyoto
So we decided to climb Mount Daimonji in Kyoto! Funny thing is we went up the wrong path the first time, then we looked online and found directions to the correct path! There are some great guides online. I can tell you that the trek up wasn't that bad, but the wind was really chilly and cold. THE VIEW WAS AMAZING!!! Seriously it's like you're on top of the world!! If you like hiking, you MUST climb Mount Daimonji. This Daimoji mountain path starts at the silver pavilion, or Ginkakuji Temple. I think there are two mount Daimonji in Kyoto. Haha. Anyways Enjoy!

If you come to Kyoto, check Mt. Daimonji. It takes only 25-30 minuiets from Ginkakuji temple.
First Sunrise; Kyoto, Japan 2018
The view from my dorm room, the mountain you can see is Mt. Daimonji. 2017 has been difficult for me and I want to make 2018 a good year. I still thank 2017 for the experiences and the new friends I have made from all over the world. I have figured out things about my self, but I also still have a lot to figure out during the new year. I miss my friends and family, I will be home soon.

On the summit mount Mount Daimonji-yama - Kyoto, Japan
Mount Daimonji is located northeast of Kyoto and has an elevation of 466 metres (1,528 feet). Daimonji-yama is especially known for Gozan Okuribi, an event which takes place on August 16. Every year on this night, huge kanji characters are formed by 75 large fires on Kyoto mountains to celebrate the end of Obon, festival of the dead.

Up on Mt.Daimonji, Kyoto overview
A very nice view of Kyoto, from the top of Mt.Daimonji.
Daimonji Fire Festival 2010, Kyoto
Every August 16 since the 1600s, Kyoto marks the end of o-Bon season by lighting up the hillsides with giant kanji, starting at 8 p.m. It's called Daimonji Gozan Okuribi, literally Giant characters five mountains sendoff fires. This marks their function as a sendoff for the ancestral spirits that visit their hometowns in the summer festival season.

Heavy breathing is due to my face being close to the camera looking at live view. I had originally intended to overlay music over the original audio but changed my mind after hearing the sounds of nature in the background.
Footage isn't as sharp as it should be, I had been taking photos earlier and ...kind of left a filter on my lens, d'oh.

KYOTO, Japan Travel Vlog • [May 2017 - week 3]
Our last week in Japan, started off really gloomy and rainy. Luckily the weather was changing halfway through and the sun was peeking here and there.
It was really fun to explore even more of Kyoto. I seriously love Japanese gardens and architecture. However, we haven’t visited as much as week 1 and that is because we had to buy souvenirs for friends and family the last two days and start packing.
Also, my obsession with corgi’s is huge. When I saw two corgi’s in one week I just had to hold my burst of joy, otherwise people will think I’m crazy. But yes, it made me so happy to give these dogs hugs.
We have visited:
- Kinkaku-ji (gouden temple)
- Heian Shrine
- Ginkaku-ji
- Kamo river
- Daimonji Mountain
- kyoto imperial palace
- Flea Market
