Grab your camera for a sight-filled five-hour adventure that takes in three top scenic attractions found in the northern Kyoto region. A 60-minute drive through ever-changing landscapes brings you to a long and narrow spit known as Amanohashidate, or 'Bridge of Heaven,' one of Japan's top-three scenic views and considered one of the most beautiful bays in the world. Spend an hour here walking and photographing this stunning landscape, then continue on to Motoise Kono Shrine, built using the oldest architectural style known in Japan, noted for its roof logs and decorated railings. Continue on to a cable car that whisks you up to Kasamatsu Park. From this vantage point, turn your back to the Amanohashidate sandbar and bend over to look at it from between your legs-it really does looks like a bridge leading right to heaven. A relaxed 75-minute drive returns you to port.

Special Notes:
