Kyoto Directory


With hundreds of temples and historic gardens, Kyoto was the imperial capital of Japan between 794 and 1868. The city is packed full of people with over 1.4 million people living in the city. The city is home to over 1600 Buddhist temples, 400 Shinto shrines and more than 100 Geisha, although the number of women who become Geisha is declining as the women who retire are not replaced.

The World Heritage city is perfect for mountain climbing and visiting the many exquisite temples. After a long day of exercise, relax in style at your hotel accommodation or sample some of Japan’s finest cuisine.
