Pickup points and meeting tips
- Keihan Iwashimizu-hachimangu Station is the main reference; the Otokoyama cable car runs from nearby up to the shrine.
- For the cherry embankment, Sakura Deai-kan is the usual meeting point.
- Groups can also drive up toward the shrine; confirm where coaches can stop.
- Shokado Garden and Art Museum is a smaller stop that fits well with the shrine.
Vehicle access
Station and riverbank approaches can limit full-size coaches. The cherry season brings heavy pedestrian traffic along the embankment and parking can be limited.
