Kyoto&rsquo;s Higashiyama district &ndash; along the lower slopes of the city&rsquo;s eastern mountains &ndash; is an amazingly preserved historic area. Home to the UNESCO sites of Kiyomizu-dera (Japan&rsquo;s most breathtaking temple) and Ginkakuji (Silver Pavilion), Higashiyama is one neighborhood you can&rsquo;t miss on a trip to the country&rsquo;s former imperial capital.

This quintessential Ebisu rickshaw experience will take you back in time the way the Japanese travelled during the Emperor&rsquo;s reign.

Longer tours of 60 to 90 minutes include a stop to explore, as well as more sightseeing at the Miyagawa area &ndash; a geisha district along the river.
