The ride is only 25 minutes, so it's not that long, but the scenery along the way is absolutely fantastic!

Okayama Castle
This castle was created by Warlord Hideie Ukita in 1597. The main castle was built on top of a hill named Okayama, and the Tensyu (castle tower), was built in front of the Asahikawa River. The adjacent castle town was created with merchants and craftsmen.
Okayama Castle is right across from Korakuen Garden, so it's really convenient to visit both spots together. The ticket price isn't too expensive, and the combo ticket with Korakuen is an even better deal.

MUNI KYOTO
Located next to the Togetsukyo Bridge in Arashiyama, Kyoto, this luxury hotel under the concept of “One and One Scenery” has been offering an ultimate healing and supreme stay experience since August 2020.
The afternoon tea here is amazing! All the egg dishes and French desserts are so beautifully made. Plus, the location is perfect—you get a direct view of the Togetsukyo Bridge.

Tennoji Zoo
Tennoji Zoo opened on January 1st, 1915 and had its 100th anniversary in 2015. Almost 170 species and 1000 animals are kept in about 11 hectares of the zoo. In the reptile house, "Ifar," and in “African Savanna Zone” where hippopotamus, giraffes, and lions live, the ecological exhibition introduces reproduced scenery of animals’ habitats as closely as possible.
The ticket is only 500 yen, so it's really not expensive at all. I definitely didn't regret going in—in fact, I thought it was a great deal.
