Hey guys, quick questions:

What's the least tiring way to explore Gion and Kiyomizudera?

1) Gion Hanamikoji--Gion corner - Ninenzanka - Sanenzanka-Kiyomizudera

2) Take bus from Gion shijo to Kiyomizumichi bus stop - 11 minutes walk uphill - Sanenzanka - Ninenzanka - Gion corner - Hanamikoji dori

Don't really wanna take route 2 due to the 11 minutes uphill walk... If we take route 1, can slowly make it to Kiyomizudera with several stops (rest)

You'll be walking mostly uphill all the time, when going route #1

#2 is the easiest, just one uphill walk in the beginning, and the rest is all downhill
Plus yasaka and gion is nicer in the evenings

That one is for hardcore mang, if you don't mind some people in your shot, I think 8-9am is a sweet spot, just nice and easy enough to find quiet spots. The crowd tsunami usually start pouring in after 9am

Hey bumping this reply cause can't find the answer as well.
Torii Gate is under renovation until june 2020. Is it still worth the visit there?

There's so much more to see in hiroshima than just that torii gate, I'd say it's worth the detour if you have the time for it

Hiroshima Nuclear Dome, peace park definitely nod.gif  going

Just unsure unsure.gif  if should take the time to visit  Miyajima as will be doing a day trip from Osaka. Getting the Hiroshima Kansai pass, travel partner not keen on staying overnight at Hiroshima.

Even without the torii gate, Miyajima is lovely for its island vibe and sunsets
To make it worth your time, you can make a detour to Iwakuni for Kintai bridge, or rabbit island before going to Miyajima in the afternoon for sunset
