Kyoto
Kyoto is one of Japan’s most beautiful and historic cities, famous for its hundreds of temples, traditional gardens and wooden houses.
It served as the country’s capital for more than a thousand years, and today delights tourists with its unique old-world atmosphere. Kyoto is home to such gems as the Golden Pavilion (Kinkaku-ji), the Red Gates of Fushimi Inari Taisha and the bamboo forest in Arashiyama. It’s also a place where you can meet geisha, sample traditional kaiseki cuisine and immerse yourself in Japanese culture.
We spent several days in Kyoto, as it is a must-see on the map for anyone who wants to discover an authentic Japan full of spirituality, harmony and beauty.
