Escape the Kyoto summer heat 🌿 Kibune & Gion Festival night | Japan travel vlog

🌿To escape the intense Kyoto summer heat, we headed up into the mountains to Kibune. We cooled off with our feet in the ice-cold river, experienced the serene evening atmosphere at Kifune Shrine, and capped it all off by wandering through the magical Gion Festival night. 💦 Hope you enjoy coming along on this trip with us! 🍵 [Please turn on the caption in the video settings to enjoy the vlog!] 🎬Filming Date: July 16, 2026 🎞️Timestamps 00:00 Intro 03:50 Kifune Kyoshiyo 05:01 Sagenta 08:02 Kifune Shrine (Okumiya [Rear Shrine]) 09:54 Kifune Shrine (Yui no Yashiro [Middle Shrine]) 11:40 Kifune Shrine (Main Shrine) 17:03 Gion Matsuri 📍Spots we visited (In order of appearance) Kifune Kyoshiyo: https://maps.app.goo.gl/5q9ienB6qkYmS...
