   The experience begins with a ride through a historic district, before we reach a tranquil shrine setting, which we explore on foot. From there, we cycle through charming neighborhoods and peaceful wooded areas, gradually making our way to a serene Zen location—a hidden gem far from the usual tourist spots. Along the way, we stop for a delicious traditional snack at a family-run shop with a history that stretches back over a thousand years. Later, we ride through a quiet temple complex to visit one of my favourite rock gardens in the area. Afterwards, we take our time riding through calm backstreets as we make our way back to the starting point. The tour covers approximately 14 km and lasts around 3 hours and 45 minutes. It’s designed to be a perfect balance of riding and walking, offering a truly unique journey through parts of the city rarely seen by visitors.
