The Kyoto subway is well designed and convinent with stops at all the good places in town. It costs about 150 yen to go across town.

Kyoto subway-Keage station

Kyoto has a fairly small but efficient subway system. You'll notice that there are panels
separating the platform from the train in some
stations, makes it feel a little claustrophobic.

Kyoto Subway.

It is very convenient to take the subway to go around Kyoto. There's a day pass for both the subway and the buses for JPY1,200 valid just for one day.
