🌿If you’re looking for a spot in Kyoto to truly slow down,
head to Shimogamo Shrine early in the morning.
You’ll first walk through Tadasu no Mori, an ancient forest where sunlight filters through the trees and streams sparkle under the leaves.
Take your time at the red torii gate and the arched bridge —
listen to the breeze, watch the reflections on the water.
It feels like stepping into a living painting.
Mornings here are quiet and peaceful — the perfect Kyoto moment.
如果想在京都找一個真正能讓人放慢腳步的地方,
我會推薦從早晨開始,走進 下鴨神社(Shimogamo Jinja)。
入口是那片被稱為「糺之森」的原始森林,陽光穿過樹梢灑在小溪上,空氣裡有樹香,也有一種讓人安靜下來的魔力。
走到朱紅色的鳥居和太鼓橋時,記得停下腳步,感受風吹過樹梢的聲音、看看水面倒映的天空。
整個神社都像是一幅活著的畫。
早上來最剛好,不擁擠,也最能感受到京都那份靜謐與溫度。
