Plan the arrival and next day
Use rail where it fits, then walk within a district. Arashiyama, Fushimi Inari and northern temples are not one compact walking circuit. Leave a buffer for buses and crowded approaches. A station hotel simplifies baggage and transfers; a quieter eastern ryokan changes the evening experience but adds a connection to some western sights.
