We headed to Kyoto which is a quick Shinkansen ride from Osaka, but we decided not to take the Shinkansen. For a cheaper ticket, albeit a longer travel time, we instead caught the Kyo-train Garaku from Umeda Station to the middle of Kyoto. This special train only runs at select times, but was certainly worth riding. The carriages are very nicely appointed inside and included zen gardens in some of the carriages. We got there a little bit early to make sure that we got a good seat since the train is quite popular and that way really enjoyed the ride and the looking at the garden.
