- Kimitaka STaichung, Taiwan15,781 contributionsEverybody knows Toyotomi Hideyoshi, but not all people know where is his grave. In Higashiyama ward in Kyoto, there is an imposing mausoleum. It is on the top of a small mountain, and it takes about 20 minutes to climb the hill. However, it worth visiting. The entrance costs $1.Written 20 January 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.

- Kimitaka STaichung, Taiwan15,781 contributionsThe monument of Yahikita, characters of Jippensha Ikku’s comical story, is located at the west end of Sanjyo Ohashi. If you are not attentive, you might overlook it. Tajikita in that story traveled along Tokaido from Edo to Kyoto, and so Sanjyo Ohashi, the goal of Tokaido, is therefore a symbolic place.Written 18 August 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Kimitaka STaichung, Taiwan15,781 contributionsThere is a statue of Takayama Hikojiro, bowing towards the imperial palace. As mobile phone was not popular, this was the meeting point. At that time, Keihan Sanjo was a terminal station and the station was on the ground level. Today, the statue of Takayama is still at the same place, but the scenery is much changed.Written 18 August 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
