Lake Biwa Essentials

Lake Biwa, Japan's largest freshwater lake, is anchored by the Edo-period Hikone Castle and the ancient Tendai monastery of Enryaku-ji on Mount Hiei. This area serves as the gateway to Kyoto’s cultural landmarks, including the gold-leafed Kinkaku-ji and the massive wooden stage of Kiyomizu-dera. The selection covers the 17th-century Nijō Castle, the Zen gardens of Ginkakuji, and the traditional geisha district of Pontochō. The journey concludes at Kyoto Station, a modern 11-storey architectural hub connecting the region via bullet train.
